Description
Book SynopsisFor students looking to expand their knowledge of Physics at A Level, this Student Book for the OCR A specification is a great way to begin. Each chapter is introduced with a summary that makes links to the knowledge covered at GCSE, and then develops gradually throughout the A Level studies. Support is given to help make links across topics, while application tasks look at a concept from a new context. There are also plenty of practice opportunities through guided activities that make sure maths and practical skills are covered.
