There are 11 required practical's for Physics:

• Specific heat capacity – An investigation to determine the specific heat capacity of one or more materials. 

• Resistance - Use circuit diagrams to set up and check appropriate circuits to investigate the factors that affect the resistance of an electrical circuit. 

•  I-V characteristics - Use circuit diagrams to construct appropriate circuits to investigate the I−V characteristics of a variety of circuit elements including a filament lamp, a resistor and a diode at constant temperature. 

• Density - Use appropriate apparatus to make and record the measurements needed to determine the densities of regular and irregular solid objects and liquids. 

• Force and extension - Investigate the relationship between force and extension of a spring.

• Acceleration – Investigate: • the effect of varying the force on the acceleration of an object of constant mass • the effect of varying the mass of an object on the acceleration produced by a constant force.

• Waves - Make observations to identify the suitability of apparatus to measure the frequency, wavelength and speed of waves

  •  in a ripple tank

  • in a solid. 

The following 3 required practical's are for Separate Physics only:

• • Radiation and absorption (Physics only) - Investigate how the amount of infrared radiation absorbed or radiated by a surface depends on the nature of that surface. 

  • Thermal insulation (Physics only) - Investigate the effectiveness of different materials as thermal insulators and the factors that may affect the thermal insulation properties of a material. 

  • Light (Physics only) - Investigate the reflection of light by different types of surface and the refraction of light by different substances.
