Synopsis
If you are preparing for examinations in science or technology, or hoping to make a career in some scientific or technological field, a sound knowledge of the fundamentals of Physics is essential. So, if you missed out on Physics at school, or simply wish to improve your knowledge of Physics, in preparation for work, exams or further training, "Essential Physics" is the course for you."Essential Physics Part 2" begins by introducing you to the concepts of velocity & acceleration and then moves on to teach you the fundamental concepts of Force, Work and Energy which underlie and explain most of the physical events which take place around us on Planet Earth, such as why objects fall to the ground, how vehicles are made to move and brought to rest, how tools and machinery make work easier for us, and so on. Finally, you will learn the basics of Astronomy, beginning with a brief examination of the Earth's position in the Universe, a voyage through the Solar System, and concluding with a fascinating insight into the birth and death of stars.Familiarity with the concepts taught in "Essential Physics Part 2" will not only help you prepare for the GCSE Physics examination, and for further study leading to careers in the field of science and engineering, but will also help you to understand what is going on around you in your everyday life.
It provides excellent preparation for professional pilot ground school studies.
