The AS Physics exam paper covers mechanics, waves, electricity, and practical experiments. Mechanics includes acceleration, force equilibrium, Hooke′s Law, and energy transfers involving ramps and pulleys. Waves explore superposition, standing waves, diffraction, and interference patterns with light and sound. Electrical concepts focus on resistance, current, EMF, and internal resistance in circuits. Particle physics examines specific charge, quark interactions, photon energy, and nuclear decay processes. Practical applications emphasize experimental techniques, error analysis, graph interpretation, and real-world scenarios such as force platforms, electrical measurements, and coherent wave behaviors
