Physics SL

Space, time and motion

A: Kinematics, forces and momentum, work energy and power, plus HL-only rigid body mechanics and relativity.

Interpret displacement, velocity, and acceleration in kinematics Use constant-acceleration equations Analyse projectile motion components Interpret motion graph gradients and areas Evaluate uncertainty in kinematics measurements Apply Newtons laws to connected bodies Resolve forces in equilibrium and acceleration contexts Use impulse and momentum conservation Analyse work, energy, power, and efficiency Connect force, energy, and momentum in multi-step mechanics
