Physics. Advanced Two - .12th Grade / Senior Year /WASSCE / O Level.

Grade 12 Physics, students typically cover a wide range of topics that build upon the fundamentals learned in earlier grades. Here's an overview of the typical syllabus:

1. Electrostatics: This includes topics such as Coulomb's law, electric field and potential due to point charges, Gauss's law, capacitance, and dielectrics.

2. Current Electricity: Students learn about electric current, Ohm's law, electrical resistance, series and parallel combinations of resistors, Kirchhoff's laws, and RC circuits.

3. Magnetic Effects of Current and Magnetism: This section covers topics such as magnetic field and force due to a current-carrying conductor, Biot-Savart law, Ampere's law, magnetic properties of materials, and electromagnetic induction.

4. Electromagnetic Induction and Alternating Currents: Concepts include Faraday's law, Lenz's law, self and mutual inductance, alternating currents, reactance, impedance, resonance, power in AC circuits, and transformers.

5. Electromagnetic Waves: This section focuses on electromagnetic spectrum, properties of electromagnetic waves, and their applications.

6. Optics: Topics include reflection and refraction of light, spherical mirrors and lenses, optical instruments like microscopes and telescopes, wave optics, interference, diffraction, and polarization.

7. Dual Nature of Radiation and Matter: Students learn about photoelectric effect, de Broglie wavelength, Davisson-Germer experiment, and Heisenberg's uncertainty principle.

8. Atoms and Nuclei: This section covers atomic models, Bohr's model of hydrogen atom, energy levels, radioactive decay, nuclear reactions, and nuclear energy.

9. Electronic Devices: Topics include semiconductors, semiconductor diode, junction transistor, logic gates, and communication systems.

Practical work and experiments are also an integral part of the CBSE Grade 12 Physics curriculum, where students get hands-on experience with concepts learned in theory. Additionally, there might be projects and assignments to reinforce understanding and application of physics principles in real-world scenarios.
