About InkPhysics

A free library of A-level physics notes, figures and printable workbooks, with a YouTube channel alongside. No account needed and no adverts; what the site measures is set out on the privacy page. InkPhysics is one of three libraries: about Ink Learning covers all of them.

What this is

InkPhysics covers AQA A-level Physics (7408): the 88 core lessons plus 53 lessons across the 5 option areas (Electronics, Engineering physics, Astrophysics, Turning points and Medical physics). That is 141 lessons across 19 units, each with written notes, diagrams drawn for the point being made and a self-check question. The lessons have 100 original workbooks between them: a lesson published in parts shares one workbook with its other part, because a question belongs to the topic rather than to the half of it you are reading. Lessons carry chips showing where they sit in the AQA, Edexcel, OCR A and CIE specifications, and the exam boards pages carry each board's full outline, row by row, with the rows no lesson here covers marked in place. Where a topic is taught in less depth than a board asks for, the gap is named on the row rather than hidden in a total.

How the material is checked

Three kinds of check run here, and they catch different things. Automated checks run on every build: equation tags are compared against the AQA data booklet, internal links and question numbering are verified, and the figures are generated from code that asserts the relationships it draws, so a decay curve must halve where it claims to and a force arrow must point where the cross product says. Those checks enforce consistency but cannot judge whether the model or premise behind a page is the right one. That is what subject review is for: content is written and revised against the official specification documents, and worked answers are recalculated when they change. And because neither layer is infallible, reader corrections are the third check: every report is checked against the sources, and genuine errors are fixed and noted.

Who runs it

InkPhysics, its sister libraries InkMaths and InkBiology, and the Android apps for physics and maths are published by Ink Learning Ltd, a company registered in England and Wales under number 17382113. Its registered office is at 71-75 Shelton Street, Covent Garden, London WC2H 9JQ, and the address for anything about the site is support@inklearning.co.uk. What the company does with your data is set out on the privacy page.

Independence

InkPhysics is an independent project. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by AQA, OCR, Pearson Edexcel, Cambridge International or any other awarding body. Every workbook question is original; none is taken from a past paper. Board names appear only to describe where content sits in each specification.

What these notes are for

The notes support taught lessons and revision; they do not replace a teacher or a classroom. The practical pages describe method and analysis for revision purposes, and no online guide replaces supervised practical work: always follow your school’s risk assessments and your teacher’s instructions in the lab.

Spotted a mistake?

The corrections page says how to send a correction and what happens to it, and every page here carries a link to report a mistake on that page. Name the page and the sentence or question, and it will be checked against the sources and fixed promptly.
