What is Year 10 Physics?
Physics is a challenging science subject that explores how scientific models are constructed and used. It is quite a mathematical subject as students develop and use scientific formulas. Students explore how scientific models are developed by exploring how scientific models have changed over time. This is done through a variety of small group practical activities, investigations and theory tasks.
