Mastery checklist
Know what success looks like.
- 01
Match each measured quantity to a suitable SI unit and instrument.
- 02
Read scales and recorded data with appropriate precision.
- 03
Use units and dimensions to test whether a result is physically consistent.
Exam lens
Build, apply, check.
1.1 Physical quantities and measurement techniques sits inside Motion, forces and energy. Build the concept first, then practise selecting a model, showing working, and checking the final result.
