Physics - Level 2 Waves

Immediately below this paragraph is a table with links to the exam questions and answers for all three externals way back to 2013. Focus on the exams for the last three years. Recognise the type of question e.g This is a question about..... Know how you are going to set out your working when answering each type of question.

We use the L2 Physics externals Scipad. If you click on the resource booklet image a new window will open that shows you the formula sheet you will have in the exams.

Waves

• reflection in curved mirrors
• refraction through lenses
• refraction
• total internal reflection
• critical angle at a plate boundary

• reflection and refraction at a plane boundary including phase and wave parameter changes if applicable
• superposition of pulses
• diffraction through a slit
• 2-point source interference (qualitative)
