Introduction to Waves for A Level Physics

This video serves as an introduction to Waves for A Level Physics. Most exam boards will cover some part of waves and these are the things you need to know. They include classification of waves, polarisation, refraction and interference among others.

Physics may seem daunting at first but there's no reason you can't succeed at A Level. On my website I have all the information and resources you could need to best prepare you for your course.

I have a series of videos to support you as you begin your journey, introducing each topic and also reminding you of the work you will already be familiar with from GCSE or IGCSE Physics.​ I am here to support you through your A Level Physics studies so that you can achieve the best grade possible!

All the introductory videos can be found at:
All A Level Physics revision videos can be found at:

Thanks for watching,

Thank you so much, you're like the freesciencelessons of a level physics

[bmbidoll]

for me whats really enjoyable abt ur videos and sets it apart from other videos like this is that whiles u explain or teach things u dont say stuff that make the people watching feel stupid. as someone who can barely remember a thing from gcse physics but still have a passion and want to learn physics, hearing someone use a tone or say things that make me feel like im not supposed to be here makes it really difficult to keep studying. but you not doing that has renewed my love for physics and i wanna thank u so so much for that !! <33

I’m watching these videos in preparation for A level physics next year. You make the topics really easy to understand.

THANK YOU THIS VIDEO WAS SO HELPFUL THANKYOU

[almira]

was just scrolling through and I'm pretty sure you've made some of the videos on uplearn right?

do we have polarisation in 2021 syllabus?

Why am i thirteen but watching A levels stuff 💀

Hello, can I use this for aqa physics a level

[thatonerealpersona]

What are those pens, they look so nice

Is diffraction how a pinhole camera works?
