I will also email all students a copy of the exam on Friday week.
 
This is to be completed and submitted by email to me Brendan.Ferris@rockwellcollege.ie by Friday 29th of May at 5pm latest, this test will form a percentage of the grade reported home.
 
I understand that the physics material can be difficult to type so I would ask that all handwritten solutions be ‘photographed’ on phones etc. using a free app known as CamScanner that will straighten and crop the photo and send it to me as an easily printable PDF.
 
We will not be covering any new material next week so you will have some time for revision.
 
We will cover only topics done in school and remotely since the Christmas exams, so:
 
HEAT:
Chapters 14 and 15
LIGHT:
Chapters 2, 3, 4 and 5
MECHANICS:
Chapters 6, 7, 8, 9 and 11
 
If there’s any queries or hassle getting on the site please send me an email and we’ll get you sorted.
