2-Day Physics Revision Plan

This 2-day study plan is designed to help you revise key topics for your IGCSE Physics exam.
The plan is focused on time management and maximizing understanding of core concepts.

Day 1: Core Concepts in Mechanics and Energy


Morning (4 hours): Mechanics

1. Kinematics (1 hour):
- Review the 3 main equations of motion (v = u + at, s = ut + ½at², v² = u² + 2as).
- Focus on solving problems involving speed, velocity, displacement, and acceleration.
2. Forces and Newton’s Laws (1 hour):
- Understand the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration (F = ma).
- Study free-body diagrams, friction, and normal force.
3. Work, Energy, and Power (1 hour):
- Revise the concepts of work done, kinetic energy (½mv²), and potential energy (mgh).
- Understand the work-energy theorem and power (P = W/t).
4. Momentum and Collisions (1 hour):
- Learn the conservation of momentum and the difference between elastic and inelastic
collisions.
- Solve problems on momentum and impulse.

Afternoon (3 hours): Waves and Electricity

1. Waves (1 hour):
- Study the properties of waves (wavelength, frequency, amplitude).
- Focus on the difference between transverse and longitudinal waves.
- Review the basic concepts of light and sound waves.
2. Electricity (2 hours):
- Understand current, voltage, and resistance (Ohm’s law: V = IR).
- Revise series and parallel circuits.
- Study power and energy in circuits (P = IV and E = Pt).
- Work through practice questions related to circuits and electricity.

Evening (1-2 hours): Practice and Mock Questions

- Solve a variety of problems related to the topics covered in the day (kinematics, work
and energy, and circuits).
Day 2: Magnetism, Modern Physics, and Final Revision
Morning (4 hours): Magnetism and Thermal Physics

1. Magnetism (2 hours):
- Understand magnetic fields created by current-carrying conductors and permanent
magnets.
- Study electromagnetic induction (Faraday’s Law) and how generators work.
- Focus on applications of magnetism and electromagnetic waves.
2. Thermal Physics (2 hours):
- Review specific heat capacity and specific latent heat formulas.
- Study thermal expansion and its applications (e.g., in bridges, thermometers).
- Understand heat transfer methods: conduction, convection, and radiation.

Afternoon (3 hours): Modern Physics and Energy Resources

1. Atomic Physics (1 hour):


- Revise the structure of the atom, isotopes, and the process of radioactive decay.
- Focus on the differences between alpha, beta, and gamma radiation.
2. Nuclear Physics (1 hour):
- Study the processes of nuclear fission and fusion.
- Review nuclear energy and its applications, including advantages and disadvantages.
3. Energy Resources (1 hour):
- Review renewable and non-renewable energy sources.
- Study the environmental impact of energy consumption.

Evening (2 hours): Final Revision and Past Papers

1. Past Paper Practice (1-2 hours):


- Practice solving past exam questions, focusing on time management and applying
formulas.
- Review key concepts you found difficult throughout the day.
