This interactive quiz is suitable for GCSE physics students studying scalar quantities, vector quantities and calculations involving forces.

This interactive quiz is suitable for GCSE physics students studying moments, moments and balanced objects, levers and gears.

This interactive quiz is suitable for GCSE physics students studying momentum calculations, conservation of momentum and force and momentum.

Scientists often make measurements. The physical quantities they measure fall into two categories: scalars and vectors. Scalar and vector quantities are treated differently in calculations.

Speed and velocity refer to the motion of an object. Distance-time and velocity-time graphs can be a useful way of analysing motion.

Isaac Newton’s laws surrounding forces were formulated hundreds of years ago, but are still used today - they help to describe the relationship between a body and the forces that act upon it.

Momentum can be thought of as the product of mass and velocity. Momentum helps explain some of the most important interactions in nature.

Forces are responsible for changing the motion of object. If more than one force is present, the shape of an object can also be changed.

Gravity is one of the most important forces in the universe. An object with mass in a gravitational field experiences a force known as weight.

Turning forces are found in many everyday situations and are essential for machines to function. Levers and gears make use of these turning forces to aid movement.

Every living thing on Earth is in balance with the pressure of the air or water around it. Pressure helps blood to move around the body and allows organisms to breathe.

Understanding how to approach exam questions helps boost exam performance. Questions will include multiple choice, descriptions and explanations, using mathematical skills and extended writing.
