GCSE/KS4 Physics: Momentum & Collisions

KS4 / GCSE Physics – Momentum & Collisions

✅  Learn or revise complicated concepts easily
✅  Information broken down into short chunks
✅  Full-colour illustrations on every page

Momentum and collisions is a key part of the forces module and is a vital part of physics at GCSE level. This Momentum & Collisions revision pack helps students understand the concepts behind this module by relating them to real life situations.

Broken down into bite sized chunks, this Momentum & Collisions GCSE revision guide will help students understand (and remember!) the key facts about the forces involved in momentum and collisions and how to calculate them.

Each numbered section is clearly laid out and illustrated to aid understanding, making it more accessible to all students, irrespective of their reading ability, with beautiful images to highlight each key point.

Written by Martin Cunningham, Head of Physics at Gracemount High School and winner of a Teacher of Physics Award from the Institute of Physics (IoP), this revision pack brings GCSE revision to life in a visual and highly memorable way.

Topics Covered Include:

• Glossary of keywords
• The difference between speed and velocity
