Description
The Form Three Physics course introduces learners to advanced concepts of motion, energy, waves, sound, heat, and electricity. Building on the foundation from Forms One and Two, students develop a deeper understanding of the laws that govern matter and energy, applying them to real-world situations and modern technology.
This virtual course combines interactive video lessons, virtual lab simulations, animations, and real-life problem-solving activities, making learning Physics engaging, visual, and practical.
