Vectors and Scalars: The Building Blocks of Physics
You encounter vectors and scalars every day without realising it. When you tell someone you walked 5 metres, that's a scalar (just magnitude). But when you say you walked 5 metres north, that's a vector (magnitude plus direction).
Vectors include displacement, velocity, force, acceleration, and momentum - they all have both size and direction. Scalars only have size: distance, speed, energy, time, and mass.
When forces combine, you get a resultant force. If a 3N force pushes right and a 1N force pushes left, the resultant is 2N to the right. For forces at angles, you can use scale diagrams - draw them to scale, measure the result, then convert back to Newtons.
💡 Quick tip: Forces are balanced when the resultant equals zero - the object either stays still or moves at constant speed.

Understanding Forces in Action
Free body diagrams show all forces acting on an object from the same centre point. Think of a car: weight pulls down, normal contact pushes up, thrust pushes forward, and drag opposes motion.
Forces split into two categories: contact forces (friction, drag, tension, normal contact, upthrust) require objects to touch, whilst non-contact forces (magnetism, gravity, electrostatic) work at a distance.
Falling objects demonstrate Newton's laws perfectly. If there's a resultant force, speed changes. No resultant force means constant speed - that's why skydivers eventually stop accelerating and fall at terminal velocity.
💡 Remember: Unbalanced forces always cause acceleration, whether speeding up, slowing down, or changing direction.

of 10
Mass, Weight, and Hooke's Law
Don't confuse mass with weight - mass measures matter (kg), whilst weight measures gravitational force (N). Weight equals mass times gravitational field strength: W = mg. On Earth, g = 9.8 N/kg.
Work done transfers energy when forces move objects through distances: Work done = Force × distance . This explains why pushing a car up a hill requires more energy than pushing it along flat ground.
Hooke's law governs springs and elastic materials. Force is directly proportional to extension: F = ke, where k is the spring constant. This works until you exceed the elastic limit and permanently damage the material.
💡 Pro tip: Springs store energy when stretched - that's why they ping back to their original length.
4
of 10
Practical Physics: Testing Springs and Measuring Speed
The Hooke's law experiment is straightforward: measure the spring's original length, add masses in 100g increments, calculate extensions, then plot force against extension. The gradient equals the spring constant.
Speed calculations use the simple formula: speed = distance ÷ time . Typical speeds include walking , running , cycling , and sound in air .
Understanding these measurements helps you tackle exam questions confidently. Whether calculating how long a journey takes or determining if a spring follows Hooke's law, the maths stays simple.
💡 Exam hint: Always check your units match - metres per second, not kilometres per hour.

of 10
Motion Graphs: Reading the Story of Movement
Distance-time graphs tell motion stories through their shapes. Straight lines show constant speed (gradient = speed), horizontal lines mean stationary, and curves indicate acceleration or deceleration.
For curved lines, draw a tangent to find instantaneous speed - the steeper the gradient, the faster the motion. A graph climbing from 0 to 100m in 20 seconds shows 5 m/s constant speed.
Acceleration measures how quickly velocity changes: acceleration = change in velocity ÷ time. It's measured in m/s² because you're dividing m/s by seconds.
💡 Graph trick: The gradient of a distance-time graph always gives you speed.
6
of 10
Speed-Time Graphs and Newton's Laws
Speed-time graphs pack loads of information. Gradients show acceleration (steeper = faster acceleration), whilst the area under the line gives distance travelled. Horizontal lines mean constant speed, not stationary.
The equations of motion connect initial velocity , final velocity , acceleration , and displacement . The key equation v² - u² = 2as helps solve complex motion problems.
Newton's first law states that objects stay still or move at constant velocity unless a resultant force acts. This explains why you slide forward when cars brake suddenly - your body wants to keep moving.
💡 Memory aid: Area under speed-time graphs = distance. Think of it as speed × time.
7
of 10
Newton's Laws in Practice
Newton's second law connects force, mass, and acceleration: F = ma. Greater force means greater acceleration; greater mass means less acceleration for the same force.
Newton's third law states that interaction forces are equal and opposite. When you walk, you push back on the ground, and it pushes forward on you with equal force.
The Newton's second law experiment uses trolleys, masses, and light gates to prove F = ma. Keep total mass constant by moving masses from trolley to hanger - this isolates force as the changing variable.
💡 Real-world example: Rockets work via Newton's third law - hot gases blast downward, pushing the rocket upward with equal force.
8
of 10
Terminal Velocity: When Forces Balance
Terminal velocity occurs when drag equals weight during free fall. Initially, weight exceeds drag, causing downward acceleration. As speed increases, drag increases until forces balance.
When a parachute opens, drag suddenly exceeds weight, causing upward acceleration (deceleration downward). Speed decreases until forces rebalance at a slower terminal velocity.
This process repeats: unbalanced forces cause acceleration, balanced forces mean constant velocity. The speed-time graph shows these phases clearly through acceleration, constant velocity, deceleration, then constant velocity again.
💡 Think about it: Without air resistance, all objects would accelerate at 9.8 m/s² regardless of mass.
9
of 10
Momentum and Road Safety
Momentum measures how hard it is to stop moving objects. Heavier, faster objects have more momentum and require greater forces to stop.
Conservation of momentum means total momentum before collision equals total momentum after - crucial for understanding car crashes and snooker shots.
Stopping distance combines thinking distance (travelled during reaction time) and braking distance (travelled whilst braking). Thinking distance increases proportionally with speed, but braking distance increases much faster.
💡 Safety fact: Doubling speed roughly quadruples braking distance - that's why speed limits matter so much.
10
of 10
Pressure and Moments: Forces in Different Forms
Pressure equals force divided by area . Small areas create large pressures (knives cut effectively), whilst large areas spread pressure (snowshoes prevent sinking).
In fluids, pressure increases with depth: P = ρgh. This explains why submarines need thick hulls and why your ears pop when diving deep.
Moments measure turning effects: moment = force × perpendicular distance. The principle of moments states that balanced objects have equal clockwise and anticlockwise moments.
💡 Practical tip: Want to open a tight jar? Grip near the edge for maximum moment - less force needed.
