掌握IGCSE物理需要清晰地聚焦于考试中最常出现的话题。这份高频考点总结提炼了必须高效复习的核心概念、方程和技能。每个部分均以中英双语呈现，帮助双语学习者巩固对核心内容的理解。
1. Kinematics | 运动学
In kinematics you must distinguish between scalars (e.g. speed, distance) and vectors (e.g. velocity, displacement). Speed is how fast something moves; velocity is speed in a given direction.
在运动学中，你必须区分标量（如速率、路程）和矢量（如速度、位移）。速率描述运动的快慢；速度是给定方向上的速率。
Distance-time and velocity-time graphs are key tools. The gradient of a distance-time graph gives speed; the gradient of a velocity-time graph gives acceleration, and the area under it gives displacement.
距离-时间图和速度-时间图是关键工具。距离-时间图的斜率表示速率；速度-时间图的斜率表示加速度，图线下的面积表示位移。
For uniform acceleration, learn the SUVAT equations. They link initial velocity u, final velocity v, acceleration a, time t and displacement s.
对于匀加速运动，要熟记SUVAT方程。它们连接了初速度u、末速度v、加速度a、时间t和位移s。
v = u + at s = ut + ½at² v² = u² + 2as
Free fall near Earth’s surface uses acceleration due to gravity g ≈ 9.8 m/s² (often rounded to 10 m/s²). Remember that air resistance is often ignored in simple models.
地表附近的自由落体使用重力加速度 g ≈ 9.8 m/s²（常取10 m/s²）。需记住在简单模型中通常忽略空气阻力。
2. Forces and Newton’s Laws | 力与牛顿定律
A force is a push or pull that can change an object’s shape or motion. The resultant force is the single force that has the same effect as all the forces acting together. If the resultant force is zero, the object remains at rest or moves with constant velocity (Newton’s First Law).
力是能改变物体形状或运动状态的推或拉。合力是作用效果与所有力共同作用相同的单一力。如果合力为零，物体保持静止或匀速直线运动（牛顿第一定律）。
Newton’s Second Law states that acceleration is proportional to resultant force and inversely proportional to mass.
牛顿第二定律指出，加速度与合力成正比，与质量成反比。
F = ma
The weight of an object is the gravitational force on it: W = mg. Mass is a scalar measured in kg; weight is a vector measured in newtons.
物体的重量是作用在其上的引力：W = mg。质量是标量，单位为千克；重量是矢量，单位为牛顿。
Newton’s Third Law says that if object A exerts a force on object B, then B exerts an equal and opposite force on A. These forces act on different objects and never cancel.
牛顿第三定律指出，若物体A对物体B施加力，则B对A施加大小相等、方向相反的力。这两个力作用在不同物体上，永不抵消。
Hooke’s Law applies to springs within the elastic limit: extension is proportional to load.
胡克定律适用于弹性限度内的弹簧：伸长量与载荷成正比。
F = kx
Here k is the spring constant and x is the extension. Beyond the elastic limit, the spring is permanently deformed.
其中k为弹簧常量，x为伸长量。超过弹性限度后，弹簧会发生永久形变。
3. Energy, Work and Power | 能量、功和功率
Energy is the capacity to do work and is conserved: it can be transferred or stored but never created or destroyed. Common stores include kinetic, gravitational potential, thermal and chemical energy.
能量是做功的本领，并且守恒：它可以被传递或储存，但不能被创造或消灭。常见的能量储存形式包括动能、重力势能、热能和化学能。
Work is done when a force moves an object in its direction. If the force F moves a distance d parallel to the force, then work W = Fd. The unit is the joule (J).
当力使物体沿其方向移动时，力就对物体做了功。若力F沿其方向移动距离d，则功W = Fd。单位是焦耳（J）。
Kinetic energy Eₖ and gravitational potential energy Eₚ are two key forms.
动能Eₖ和重力势能Eₚ是两种关键的能量形式。
Eₖ = ½mv² Eₚ = mgh
Power is the rate of doing work or transferring energy. P = E / t (or W / t). The unit is the watt (W).
功率是做功或传递能量的快慢。P = E / t（或 W / t）。单位是瓦特（W）。
Efficiency is the ratio of useful output energy (or power) to total input energy. It can be expressed as a decimal or percentage.
效率是有用输出能量（或功率）与总输入能量之比。可用小数或百分数表示。
Efficiency = Useful output energy / Total input energy
In all real processes, some energy is transferred to thermal stores in the surroundings, reducing efficiency.
在所有实际过程中，部分能量会传递给周围环境的热能储存，从而降低效率。
4. Waves | 波
Waves transfer energy without transferring matter. In transverse waves, vibrations are perpendicular to the direction of energy transfer (e.g. light, water waves). In longitudinal waves, vibrations are parallel (e.g. sound).
波传递能量而不传递物质。在横波中，振动方向与能量传递方向垂直（如光波、水波）。在纵波中，振动方向与能量传递方向平行（如声波）。
Wave speed v, frequency f and wavelength λ are related by the wave equation.
波速v、频率f和波长λ通过波速公式相关联。
v = f λ
All waves can be reflected, refracted and diffracted. Reflection follows the law of reflection (angle of incidence = angle of reflection). Refraction involves a change in speed and direction when a wave enters a new medium.
所有波都能被反射、折射和衍射。反射遵循反射定律（入射角 = 反射角）。折射涉及波在进入新介质时速度和方向的改变。
For light, the refractive index n describes how much the light slows down. Snell’s law links the angles and refractive indices.
对于光，折射率n描述了光速减慢的程度。斯涅尔定律联系了各角度和折射率。
n = sin i / sin r
When light travels from a denser to a rarer medium, total internal reflection can occur if the angle of incidence is greater than the critical angle c. The critical angle is given by sin c = 1/n.
当光从光密介质射向光疏介质时，若入射角大于临界角c，就会发生全内反射。临界角满足 sin c = 1/n。
The electromagnetic spectrum includes, in order of increasing frequency and decreasing wavelength: radio, microwave, infrared, visible, ultraviolet, X-ray and gamma rays.
电磁波谱按频率升高、波长减小的顺序依次为：无线电波、微波、红外线、可见光、紫外线、X射线和伽马射线。
5. Electricity | 电学
Current I is the rate of flow of charge, measured in amperes (A). Voltage V (potential difference) is the energy transferred per unit charge, measured in volts (V). Resistance R opposes the flow of current, measured in ohms (Ω).
电流I是电荷流动的速率，单位为安培（A）。电压V（电势差）是每单位电荷传递的能量，单位为伏特（V）。电阻R阻碍电流流动，单位为欧姆（Ω）。
Ohm’s law states that for a resistor at constant temperature, V is proportional to I.
欧姆定律指出，对温度恒定的电阻器，V与I成正比。
V = IR
In series circuits, current is the same everywhere, total resistance R_total = R₁ + R₂ + …, and the supply voltage is shared. In parallel circuits, the voltage across each branch is the same, and total current is the sum of branch currents. The reciprocal formula for resistance is 1/R_total = 1/R₁ + 1/R₂ + …
在串联电路中，各处电流相等，总电阻R_total = R₁ + R₂ + …，电源电压被分压。在并联电路中，各支路电压相等，总电流等于各支路电流之和。电阻的倒数关系为 1/R_total = 1/R₁ + 1/R₂ + …
Electrical power and energy can be calculated with several useful forms.
电功率和电能可以通过几个有用的公式计算。
P = IV P = I²R P = V²/R E = IVt
Mains electricity uses alternating current (a.c.) with a voltage of about 230 V. Fuses and circuit breakers protect circuits from excessive current. The correct fuse rating should be slightly above the normal operating current.
家庭用电使用交流电（a.c.），电压约230伏。保险丝和断路器保护电路防止电流过大。正确的保险丝额定值应略高于正常工作电流。
6. Magnetism and Electromagnetism | 磁学与电磁学
Magnets have north and south poles; like poles repel, unlike poles attract. A magnetic field line shows the direction a north pole would move. Electromagnets use a coil of wire (solenoid) around a soft iron core to produce a strong magnetic field when current flows.
磁体有N极和S极；同名极相斥，异名极相吸。磁感线表示N极的受力方向。电磁铁利用绕在软铁芯上的线圈，当电流通过时产生强磁场。
The motor effect: a current-carrying wire in a magnetic field experiences a force. Fleming’s left-hand rule relates the directions of field, current and force.
电动机效应：磁场中的载流导线受到力。弗莱明左手定则将磁场、电流和力的方向联系起来。
Electromagnetic induction: when a wire cuts magnetic field lines (or a magnet moves in a coil), a voltage is induced. This is the principle of generators. The direction of induced current can be found using Fleming’s right-hand rule.
电磁感应：当导线切割磁感线（或磁铁在线圈中运动）时，会感应出电压。这是发电机的基本原理。感应电流的方向可用弗莱明右手定则判断。
Transformers change the size of an alternating voltage. For an ideal transformer, the voltage ratio equals the turns ratio.
变压器改变交流电压的大小。对理想变压器，电压比等于匝数比。
Vₚ / Vₛ = Nₚ / Nₛ
Step-up transformers increase voltage and decrease current, reducing energy losses in power lines.
升压变压器升高电压、减小电流，从而减少输电线路的能量损失。
7. Thermal Physics | 热物理
All matter is made of particles in constant, random motion. Temperature is related to the average kinetic energy of these particles. Absolute zero (0 K or -273 °C) is the lowest possible temperature.
所有物质都由不断做无规则运动的粒子组成。温度与这些粒子的平均动能相关。绝对零度（0 K 或 -273 °C）是可能的最低温度。
When a substance is heated without changing state, its internal energy increases and its temperature rises. The specific heat capacity c is the energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 kg of the substance by 1 °C.
当物质在不发生物态变化的情况下被加热，其内能增加，温度升高。比热容c是使1千克物质温度升高1 °C所需的能量。
E = mcΔθ
During a change of state (melting, freezing, boiling, condensing), the temperature remains constant even though energy is being transferred. The specific latent heat L is the energy required to change the state of 1 kg of substance without a temperature change.
在物态变化过程中（熔化、凝固、沸腾、凝结），尽管有能量传递，温度却保持不变。比潜热L是使1千克物质在不改变温度的情况下发生物态变化所需的能量。
E = mL
Thermal energy is transferred by conduction (solids, particle vibration), convection (fluids, density changes) and radiation (electromagnetic waves, no medium required).
热能以传导（固体，粒子振动）、对流（流体，密度变化）和辐射（电磁波，不需要介质）的方式传递。
8. Radioactivity | 放射性
An atom consists of a nucleus containing protons and neutrons, surrounded by electrons. Isotopes are atoms of the same element with the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons.
原子由包含质子和中子的原子核及绕核运动的电子组成。同位素是质子数相同而中子数不同的同种元素的原子。
Radioactive decay is a random process where an unstable nucleus emits radiation. There are three main types: alpha (α), beta (β) and gamma (γ). The table below compares their properties.
放射性衰变是不稳定原子核发出辐射的随机过程。主要有三种类型：α射线、β射线和γ射线。下表比较了它们的性质。
