Cambridge Cambridge IGCSE Physics Learning Path

Detailed syllabus unit mapping, custom lesson objectives, required laboratory practical guides, and assessment MCQ checklists.

Study fundamental principles of mechanics, thermal dynamics, waves, electricity, nuclear decay, and astrophysics.

Lesson Plans & Objectives

Speed, Velocity and Acceleration50 min

Distinguish between scalar speed and vector velocity.
Calculate acceleration from velocity-time graph gradients.

Hooke's Law & Spring Extension50 min

State Hooke's law formula.
Identify limit of proportionality on force-extension graphs.

Suggested Practical Activities

Calibrating a helical spring and plotting load-extension curves

Revision Notes

Acceleration a = Δv / t. The area under a speed-time graph represents total displacement.
Hooke's Law: F = kx, where k is the spring constant and x is extension.
