Key Stage 3 (Years 7–9) · Science

Forces and motion

Pupils study forces and motion, including contact and non-contact forces, resultant force, speed, velocity, acceleration, mass and weight, and the effects of balanced and unbalanced forces. They learn to draw and interpret force diagrams, apply calculations for speed and acceleration, and investigate friction, drag and terminal velocity. Practical skills include measuring motion and analysing graphs.
