Bob Emery - HSC Web Site

  • Welcome to the Senior Physics web site!  This education site is managed by Bob Emery.  It is designed as a reference point for students of the Stage 6 Physics Course in NSW.  There is also some material that may be of use for students studying the Studies of Religion Courses in NSW.  Other visitors are most welcome.

  • On this website you will find notes, diagrams, worksheets, revision questions, labs, brain teasers, links to useful INTERNET sites and helpful material for assessment tasks.  The Physics notes are organized to follow reasonably closely the order of the dot points in the "Students learn to" column of the Syllabus.  Lab experiments, sets of questions and links then attempt to provide sufficient assistance to enable students to complete the tasks designated by the dot points in the "Students" column of the Syllabus.  For a copy of the Stage 6 Physics Syllabus follow this link to the Board of Studies website and page down until you find "Physics".

    If you find this site useful, you may wish to make a donation towards the upkeep of the site.  If so, please click on the link to the "Site Support" page.
