Level 3 Physics - Extended

This course is designed to cater for students whose chosen career pathway leads to tertiary study within Physics, Engineering or related fields and continues straight on from the end of Lever Two Physics.

The course is supported by PowerPoint presentations and computer animations aid understanding by allowing complex concepts to be visualised. Through demonstrations and experiments students experience physical events in the real world and are able to determine mathematical relationships. Course workbooks are used to improve problem solving skills and test the application of theory to real life contexts. Research and class discussions further enhance the students understanding and enjoyment of the course. The course builds upon the L2 Physics Extended course and expands the students’ knowledge of physics and its applications. It is recommended that students at least study 3MAC.

Physics is an important pre-requisite for most science, engineering, technology, medical, electrical, aviation, geology, energy management and oceanography courses.
