NCEA Level 2 Physics

This page contains topic outlines and revision pages for a number of topics in the NCEA Level 2 Physics Course.

Please Note: We will get round to putting up the Answers to the Collated Questions but - in the meantime - you can work out the answers by visiting the relevant NCEA page and using the code at the end of the Collated Question e.g. (2010;2) means the 2010 examination Question 2.

PHY2 Topic Outlines and Revision

Externally Assessed Achievement Standards & Internally Assessed AS/US

Waves - External

This material largely relates to the old standard - AS90254. There were only minor changes to this standard when it became AS91170. We will update the resources in the next few weeks.

Atoms and Radioactivity - Internal

Prior to 2012, this was an external standard - AS90256. It is likely to be assessed using an internal test from 2012 onwards (although teachers can select from a range of assessment techniques). There were only minor changes to this standard when it became AS91172. We will update the resources in the next few weeks.
