Why Study Physics?
Physics is the foundation of all natural sciences. It helps us understand how the universe works, from the smallest subatomic particles to the largest galaxies. The problem-solving skills you'll develop in physics are valuable in many careers, including engineering, medicine, technology, and even finance.
Through hands-on experiments, simulations, and real-world applications, you'll develop critical thinking skills and gain a deeper appreciation for the elegant mathematical patterns that describe our physical reality.
Module Structure
This module is divided into 5 units, each focusing on a major area of physics. Each unit contains several lessons, interactive simulations, hands-on experiments, and real-world applications. You'll complete knowledge checks, reflection activities, and a final project to demonstrate your understanding.
