Physics helps us to understand how the world works. Various physical phenomena and events can be predicted and explained by the laws of Physics. The fundamental theories of Physics form the bedrock of many modern technologies and are responsible for practical applications in different fields of science and technology.
In our study of Physics, we start off with in depth understanding of the classical world of Newton and his 3 laws, applied in day to day situations before extrapolating them to the effects of gravitational fields on masses. We then delve into the study of waves and oscillations, followed by the very interesting and useful relationship between electricity and magnetism. Finally, we end off with the intriguing world of modern physics, where everything is a matter of chance.
Through our programme, we hope to provide students with an experience that develops their interest in physics, and builds the knowledge, skills and attitudes necessary for further studies in related fields. We also hope to develop in them the understanding, skills, ethics and attitudes relevant to the Practices of Science including understanding the nature of scientific knowledge, demonstrating science inquiry skills and relating science and society.
