About Cambridge IGCSE Physics Forces
This sub-topic covers forces.
What you need to know
- Effects Changes in shape, speed and direction.
- Springs Load-extension graphs and the limit of proportionality.
- Moments Moment = force x perpendicular distance; centre of gravity and stability.
Common mistakes in Forces
- Using total length instead of extension.
- Forgetting circular motion needs a force.
