The Science in Focus: Physics for 5N Practical Workbook serves to complement the Science in Focus: Physics for 5N Textbook and Science in Focus: Physics for 5N Theory Workbook. It has been prepared to allow students to develop confidence and ability in handling the various experimental techniques that are expected at the G.C.E. ‘O’ Level Science (Physics) practical examinations. We have used a three step approach to achieve that objective: Activities, Experiments, Examination Papers. It is hoped that with this innovative and comprehensive approach, the student will learn more about Physics and enjoy doing it at the same time.
