Basic Knowledge Higher Physics

This book can be used by Scottish pupils as a revision guide for all three Units of the Higher Physics course. Covering fully the required Knowledge and Understanding elements of the course, there is also useful material for the Problem Solving sections in a chapter devoted to this skill. Each chapter (Mechanics and Properties of Matter, Electricity and Electronics, Radiation and Matter, Significant Figures, Errors and Uncertainties) contains a checklist of the demands of the unit, as well as a list of physical quantities and formulae or relationships relevant to the topic.
