Flashcards for Eduqas A-level Physics (A420), split into Component 1 Newtonian physics, Component 2 Electricity and the universe and Component 3 Light, nuclei and options, then by the specification's numbered topics. The four options (Alternating currents, Medical physics, The physics of sports and Energy and the environment) each get a subdeck of their own, so delete or suspend the ones you do not take. Practical methods and errors sit in the topic they belong to.

Adding it gives you your own copy, with every subdeck below. Each card then comes back just before you would forget it, and every one you get right or wrong counts towards your mastery of its topic. You can delete or suspend the parts you are not studying once it is yours.

Some of its cards

  • Potential difference is the [...] between two points.
    Potential difference is the energy transferred per unit charge between two points.
  • What is the period of rotation?
    The time taken for one complete revolution
  • What is displacement?
    The distance moved in a particular direction from a starting point
  • What is electric field strength at a point?
    The force a small positive test charge would feel there, divided by its charge
  • State Kepler's first law.
    The orbit of a planet is an ellipse with the Sun at one focus
  • What is the approximate wavelength range of visible light?
    400 nm (violet) to 700 nm (red)
  • Work done is the product of a force and the distance moved [...].
    Work done is the product of a force and the distance moved in the direction of the force.
  • What does a stellar spectrum consist of?
    A continuous emission spectrum with dark absorption lines
  • What are the effects of ionising radiation on living matter?
    It ionises atoms in cells, damaging DNA and other molecules, which can kill cells or cause mutations that lead to cancer
  • Define simple harmonic motion in words.
    Motion in which the acceleration is proportional to the displacement from a fixed point and always directed towards that point
