1. Motion and Graphs | 运动与图像
Distance-time graphs show how distance changes with time. The gradient (slope) represents speed. A straight line indicates constant speed; a horizontal line means the object is stationary. If the graph is curved, the speed is changing.
距离-时间图显示距离随时间变化的关系。斜率表示速度。直线表示匀速；水平线表示物体静止。如果图像是曲线，说明速度在改变。
Speed-time graphs are equally important. Here, the gradient gives acceleration, and the area under the graph represents the distance travelled. A horizontal line shows constant speed; an upward slope indicates positive acceleration.
速度-时间图同样重要。其中斜率给出加速度，图线下面积表示所经过的距离。水平线表示匀速；上坡表示正加速度。
s = v × t (constant speed) | a = (v – u) / t | v² = u² + 2as
对于恒定速度：路程 = 速度 × 时间。加速度 a = (末速度 v – 初速度 u) / 时间 t。重要的运动方程：v² = u² + 2as，以及 s = ut + ½at²。
CCEA exam questions often require you to interpret graphs, calculate gradients and areas, and rearrange the equations of motion. Always show units, such as m/s, m/s² and m.
CCEA 考题常要求解释图像、计算斜率与面积，并变换运动方程。务必标注单位，如 m/s、m/s² 和 m。
2. Forces and Newton’s Laws | 力与牛顿定律
sultant force, m mass and a acceleration. Newton’s Third Law: every action has an equal and opposite reaction.
牛顿第一定律：若无合力作用，物体将保持静止或匀速直线运动。牛顿第二定律：F = ma，F 为合力，m 为质量，a 为加速度。牛顿第三定律：每一个作用力都有一个大小相等、方向相反的反作用力。
9.8 m/s². Remember weight and mass are not the same; mass is measured in kg, weight in N.
重量是重力引起的力：W = mg。在地球上，g ≈ 9.8 m/s²。注意重量与质量不同；质量单位是 kg，重量单位是 N。
ment = total anticlockwise moment. This is frequently examined in lever and beam problems.
力矩 = 力 × 到支点的垂直距离。力矩原理指出，平衡物体的总顺时针力矩等于总逆时针力矩。这是杠杆和横梁问题的高频考点。
F = ma | W = mg | Moment = F × d
合力方程、重量方程与力矩方程是解题核心。
3. Energy, Work and Power | 能量、功与功率
Energy can exist in many forms: kinetic, gravitational potential, thermal, chemical, etc. The principle of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred or converted.
能量有多种形式：动能、重力势能、热能、化学能等。能量守恒定律指出，能量不能被创造或毁灭，只能转移或转化。
ng work or transferring energy: P = W / t or P = E / t. The unit of power is the watt (W).
功 = 力 × 在力的方向上移动的距离。功率是做功或转移能量的快慢：P = W / t 或 P = E / t。功率的单位是瓦特 (W)。
KE = ½mv² | GPE = mgh
动能 KE = ½ mv²，重力势能 GPE = mgh。这些公式在能量守恒计算中反复出现。
Efficiency = (useful output energy / total input energy) × 100%. No machine is 100% efficient; energy is wasted, often as heat due to friction.
效率 = (有用输出能量 / 总输入能量) × 100%。没有机器是 100% 高效的；能量会因摩擦等以热的形式耗散。
4. Momentum and Impulse | 动量与冲量
y. In a closed system, total momentum before a collision equals total momentum after (conservation of momentum).
动量 p = mv。动量是矢量。在封闭系统中，碰撞前的总动量等于碰撞后的总动量（动量守恒）。
y features like airbags and crumple zones reduce injury: they increase the time of impact, reducing the force for the same change in momentum.
冲量 = 力 × 时间 = 动量变化量：Ft = Δp。这解释了为何安全气囊和吸能区能减少伤害：它们延长撞击时间，从而在动量变化相同的情况下减小力。
p = mv | m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂
动量守恒方程常用于碰撞和爆炸问题。确保区分初速度和末速度。
5. Waves: Properties and Types | 波的性质与类型
Waves transfer energy without transferring matter. Transverse waves (e.g., light, water waves) have oscillations perpendicular to the direction of energy transfer. Longitudinal waves (e.g., sound) have oscillations parallel to the direction of energy transfer.
波传递能量而不传递物质。横波（如光波、水波）的振动方向与能量传递方向垂直。纵波（如声波）的振动方向与能量传递方向平行。
ve speed (m/s), f is frequency (Hz), and λ is wavelength (m). Reflection, refraction and diffraction are key wave behaviours. Refraction occurs when waves change speed at a boundary, causing a change in direction if the wave hits at an angle.
波动方程：v = fλ，其中 v 是波速 (m/s)，f 是频率 (Hz)，λ 是波长 (m)。反射、折射和衍射是关键的波行为。折射是指波在边界处速度改变，若斜射则方向改变。
v = fλ
使用此方程时，注意频率的单位是 Hz，波长常用 m。
Sound waves require a medium, cannot travel in a vacuum. The speed of sound in air is about 340 m/s. Echoes and ultrasound applications are common CCEA contexts.
声波需要介质，不能在真空中传播。空气中的声速约为 340 m/s。回声和超声应用是 CCEA 常见情景题。
6. Electromagnetic Spectrum | 电磁波谱
let, X-rays, and gamma rays. All travel at the speed of light in a vacuum (3.0 × 10⁸ m/s).
电磁波谱按波长递减顺序为：无线电波、微波、红外线、可见光、紫外线、X 射线和伽马射线。它们在真空中都以光速传播 (3.0 × 10⁸ m/s)。
As wavelength decreases, frequency and energy increase. Different regions have distinct uses: radio – communication, microwaves – cooking, IR – thermal imaging, visible – sight, UV – tanning and sterilisation, X-rays – medical imaging, gamma rays – cancer treatment and sterilisation.
波长越短，频率和能量越高。不同波段有不同用途：无线电波 – 通信，微波 – 加热食物，红外线 – 热成像，可见光 – 视觉，紫外线 – 晒黑和消毒，X 射线 – 医学影像，伽马射线 – 癌症治疗和灭菌。
High-energy waves such as UV, X-rays and gamma rays are ionising and can damage cells. Exposure must be minimised; lead shielding is used for X-rays and gamma rays.
高能波如紫外线、X 射线和伽马射线具有电离能力，会损伤细胞。必须尽量减少暴露，X 射线和伽马射线常用铅屏蔽。
7. Electricity: Circuits and Resistance | 电学：电路与电阻
e energy transferred per unit charge. Resistance (R) opposes current: V = I R (Ohm’s law).
电流 (I) 是电荷流动的快慢：I = Q / t。电势差 (V) 是单位电荷转移的能量。电阻 (R) 阻碍电流：V = I R（欧姆定律）。
V = I R | P = I V = I² R | Q = I t
基础方程：欧姆定律、电功率 P = I V 和电荷量 Q = I t。
For series circuits: current is the same everywhere, total voltage is shared, total resistance Rtotal oltage across each branch is the same, current splits, and total resistance is given by 1/Rtotal = 1/R₁ + 1/R₂ + ...
串联电路：各处电流相同，总电压分配，总电阻 Rtotal = R₁ + R₂ + ... 并联电路：各支路电压相同，电流分流，总电阻由 1/Rtotal = 1/R₁ + 1/R₂ + ... 计算。
I-V characteristic graphs show how current varies with voltage for different components. The filament lamp graph curves due to increasing resistance with temperature. The diode allows current in one direction only.
I-V 特性曲线图显示不同元件的电流随电压变化关系。白炽灯的曲线因温度升高电阻增大而弯曲。二极管只允许单向电流。
8. Magnetism and Electromagnetism | 磁学与电磁学
Permanent magnets have north and south poles. Like poles repel; unlike poles attract. An electromagnet is a solenoid with an iron core; its strength can be increased by increasing current, the number of turns, or using a soft iron core.
永磁体有北极和南极。同性相斥，异性相吸。电磁铁是带铁芯的螺线管；增大电流、增加线圈匝数或使用软铁芯可增强磁性。
The motor effect: a current-carrying conductor in a magnetic field experiences a force. Fleming’s left-hand rule predicts the direction: thumb – force (motion), first finger – field (N to S), second finger – current (+ to –).
电动机效应：磁场中的载流导体会受到力的作用。弗莱明左手定则判断方向：拇指 – 力（运动），食指 – 磁场（N→S），中指 – 电流（+→-）。
Electromagnetic induction: a changing magnetic field induces a potential difference across a conductor. This is the principle of generators and transformers. The transformer equation: Vp / Vs = Np / Ns, and for an ideal transformer: Vp Ip = Vs Is.
电磁感应：变化的磁场会在导体两端感应出电势差。这是发电机和变压器的工作原理。变压器方程：Vp / Vs = Np / Ns，理想变压器还有 Vp Ip = Vs Is。
Vp / Vs = Np / Ns
升压变压器 (Ns > Np) 用于长距离输电以减少能量损耗。
9. Radioactivity and Nuclear Physics | 放射性及核物理
An atom consists of a nucleus (protons + neutrons) surrounded by electrons. Isotopes have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons. Unstable nuclei decay, emitting alpha (α), beta (β) or gamma (γ) radiation.
原子由原子核（质子和中子）与核外电子组成。同位素质子数相同而中子数不同。不稳定原子核会衰变，释放 α 辐射、β 辐射或 γ 辐射。
Alpha particles are helium nuclei (2p + 2n), highly ionising but stopped by paper. Beta particles are fast electrons, moderately ionising, stopped by a few mm of aluminium. Gamma rays are electromagnetic waves, weakly ionising but very penetrating, reduced by thick lead or concrete.
α 粒子是氦核 (2 个质子和 2 个中子)，电离能力最强，但能被纸挡住。β 粒子是高速电子，电离能力中等，几毫米铝就可阻挡。γ 射线是电磁波，电离能力最弱但穿透力极强，用厚铅或混凝土减弱。
Half-life is the time taken for half the nuclei in a sample to decay, or for the count rate to halve. It is used in carbon dating and medical tracers. Remember, radioactive decay is random and cannot be influenced by external conditions.
半衰期是样品中一半原子核衰变所需的时间，或是计数率减半的时间。应用于碳定年和医用示踪剂。记住，放射性衰变是随机的，不受外界条件影响。
Activity (Bq) = decays per second
活度单位是贝克勒尔 (Bq)。图像解释题常给出半衰期图，需读取数据。
10. Thermal Physics: Specific Heat and Latent Heat | 热物理：比热容和潜热
is the energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 kg of a substance by 1 °C: E = m c Δθ.
热是从高温物体传递到低温物体的内能。温度衡量粒子平均动能。比热容 (c) 是使 1 kg 物质升温 1 °C 所需的能量：E = m c Δθ。
E = m c Δθ | E = m L
E = m c Δθ 用于无相变的加热/冷却，E = m L 用于物态变化（L 是比潜热，单位 J/kg）。
Specific latent heat of fusion (solid ↔ liquid) and vaporisation (liquid ↔ gas). During a change of state, temperature remains constant even though energy is being transferred; this energy breaks bonds rather than raising kinetic energy.
比熔解潜热（固 ↔ 液）和比汽化潜热（液 ↔ 气）。在物态变化过程中，虽然能量在传递，温度却保持不变；这些能量用于打破分子间键，而不是增加动能。
The kinetic theory explains thermal expansion, pressure changes in gases, and Brownian motion. Gas pressure is caused by particles colliding with container walls; increasing temperature increases average speed and pressure (at constant volume).
分子运动论解释热膨胀、气体压强变化和布朗运动。气体压强由粒子撞击容器壁产生；温度升高（等容下）会增加平均速度和压强。
