Physics, Grade 11, SPH3U
Prerequisites : SNC2D
Grade 11 Physics (SPH3U) is a course that expands on the scientific concepts introduced in Grade 10, focusing on understanding the fundamental principles that govern the physical world. Students will explore topics such as motion (kinematics), forces and their effects on objects (dynamics), energy and its conservation, as well as the behavior of waves and light. The course encourages critical thinking and problem-solving through hands-on experiments, real-world applications, and mathematical analysis, helping students develop a deeper understanding of how physical systems interact. This course prepares students for more advanced studies in physics and other related fields.
Physics, Grade 12, SPH4U
Prerequisites : SPH3U
Grade 12 Physics (SPH4U) builds on the principles learned in Grade 11, offering a more advanced exploration of the physical world. In this course, students study topics such as electric fields and circuits, magnetism, electromagnetic waves, atomic physics, and nuclear reactions. They will deepen their understanding of the interactions between matter and energy through both theoretical and practical approaches, including complex problem-solving and experiments. The course emphasizes critical thinking, scientific inquiry, and mathematical modeling, preparing students for post-secondary education in science, engineering, and technology fields. Through the study of advanced physics concepts, students gain a greater appreciation for the laws that govern the universe.
