Physics Syllabus For MYP4-5 IB

This document outlines the key topics and units covered in a MYP 4-5 physics course. The course is divided into 8 units that cover measurement and motion, forces, energy and thermal physics, waves and light rays, electricity, magnetism and electromagnetism, atomic physics, and astrophysics. Some of the main topics included are Newton's laws of motion, work and power, electromagnetic forces, atomic structure, and the Big Bang theory. The units are taught over two years with assessments occurring at the end of each term.
