What we predict comes up
From the syllabus weighting and how the papers are usually set. The papers below follow it.
- Motion, forces and energy32%The largest syllabus section: kinematics graphs, momentum and impulse, energy and efficiency, and pressure usually take about a third of each paper.
- Electricity and magnetism24%Circuit calculations, sensors in potential dividers, induction and transformers with grid power loss make this the second biggest share.
- Waves18%Refraction, critical angle and the electromagnetic spectrum are steady favourites, with a wave equation calculation every sitting.
- Thermal physics12%Gas pressure in particle terms, pV = constant and a specific heat capacity or latent heat calculation appear on almost every Paper 4.

The graph shows how the speed of a runner changes during the first 10 s of a race. The runner accelerates uniformly from rest to 12 m/s in 4.0 s and then runs at a constant 12 m/s. How far does the runner travel in the 10 s?
