CSEC subject guide

CSEC Physics

Mechanics, energy, waves and electricity — heavy on applied calculation.

Practise it free in the Practice Lab, then come back to the tricky topics.

What it covers

  • Mechanics
  • Thermal physics and kinetic theory
  • Waves and optics
  • Electricity and magnetism
  • The physics of the atom

Where marks get lost

  • Unit conversion errors
  • Skipping the formula statement before substitution
  • Sketching graphs without axes or scale

How to revise CSEC Physics

Short, specific habits beat long unfocused sessions.

Step 1

State the formula, substitute, then solve — every time

Step 2

Practise questions that combine two topics

Step 3

Rehearse the standard experiments and their sources of error
