📚 Mind Map Speed Revision for IGCSE CIE Physics | IGCSE CIE 物理思维导图速记
Mind maps turn scattered facts into a visual network, helping you recall IGCSE Physics concepts and equations at a glance. This guide builds a complete revision map covering all CIE core topics, with every branch mapped out for rapid recall before your exam.
思维导图能把零散的知识点变成可视化的网络,让你一眼就回想起 IGCSE 物理概念和方程。本文构建了一份覆盖 CIE 所有核心主题的完整复习导图,每个分支都为你考前快速记忆而梳理清晰。
1. How to Mind Map Physics | 如何绘制物理思维导图
Start with the exam topic at the centre, then radiate sub-topics as thick branches. Add key definitions, equations, and real-world links as smaller twigs – use different colours for forces, energy, waves and electricity so your brain builds strong associations.
把考试主题放在中心,然后从中心辐射出子主题作为粗分支。在细枝上添加关键定义、方程和现实中的联系——用不同的颜色区分力、能量、波和电学,让大脑建立牢固的联想。
Always sketch a quick mind map before attempting past paper questions; it primes your working memory and exposes gaps instantly. For formulas, place them inside coloured boxes in your map and repeat aloud while tracing the map with your finger.
做真题之前先快速画一张思维导图;它能激活你的工作记忆,立即暴露知识空缺。对于公式,在导图中用彩色框标出,并边用手指划过导图边大声重复。
2. Motion and Forces | 运动与力
Central node: Motion. Main branches: Kinematics, Dynamics, Momentum, and Turning Effect.
中心节点:运动。主要分支:运动学、动力学、动量与转动效应。
Kinematics: Distance (scalar) and displacement (vector). Speed = distance/time, velocity = displacement/time in m/s. Acceleration = change in velocity / time, can be negative (deceleration).
运动学:路程(标量)和位移(矢量)。速率 = 路程/时间,速度 = 位移/时间,单位 m/s。加速度 = 速度变化量/时间,可以为负值(减速)。
v = u + at
s = ut + ½at²
v² = u² + 2as
These three uniform acceleration equations are your essential tools. On a speed-time graph, gradient = acceleration, area under graph = distance travelled. On a distance-time graph, gradient = speed.
这三个匀加速运动方程是你的必备工具。在速度-时间图像中,斜率 = 加速度,曲线下方面积 = 移动的距离;在距离-时间图像中,斜率 = 速率。
Dynamics: Newton’s First Law (inertia), Second Law (F = ma, resultant force causes acceleration), Third Law (action-reaction pairs act on different bodies). Weight W = mg, where g ≈ 9.8 m/s² on Earth.
动力学:牛顿第一定律(惯性),第二定律(F = ma,合力产生加速度),第三定律(作用力与反作用力作用在不同物体上)。重量 W = mg,地球上 g ≈ 9.8 m/s²。
Momentum p = mv (conserved in collisions when no external force acts). Impulse = Ft = Δp. In explosions, total momentum before = 0.
动量 p = mv(无外力时碰撞前后守恒)。冲量 = Ft = Δp。在爆炸问题中,总动量初始为 0。
Turning effect: Moment = force × perpendicular distance from pivot. Object in equilibrium when clockwise moments = anticlockwise moments. Centre of mass is the point where weight appears to act.
转动效应:力矩 = 力 × 到支点的垂直距离。物体平衡时顺时针力矩 = 逆时针力矩。重心是重力作用线的交汇点。
3. Energy, Work and Power | 能量、功和功率
Core concept: Energy is the ability to do work and is always conserved. Main branches: Energy stores/transfers, Work, Power, Efficiency.
核心概念:能量是做功的本领,总是守恒的。主要分支:能量储存/转移、功、功率、效率。
Kinetic energy = ½mv², gravitational potential energy = mgh. When an object falls, GPE is converted to KE (assuming no air resistance). Elastic potential energy stored in stretched springs.
动能 = ½mv²,重力势能 = mgh。物体下落时,重力势能转化成动能(忽略空气阻力)。弹性势能储存在拉伸的弹簧中。
Work done W = Fd (force × distance moved in direction of force). 1 joule = 1 newton metre. Work done against friction often heats surfaces.
做功 W = Fd(力 × 沿力方向移动的距离)。1 焦耳 = 1 牛顿·米。克服摩擦做功常常使表面发热。
Power P = W / t, also P = E / t. Unit: watt (J/s). For a moving object, P = Fv when force and velocity are constant.
功率 P = W / t,也可用 P = E / t。单位:瓦特(焦耳/秒)。如果力和速度恒定,P = Fv。
Efficiency = (useful output energy / total input energy) × 100%, or useful output power / total input power. No device is 100% efficient due to friction and heat losses.
效率 =(有用的输出能量 / 总输入能量)× 100%,也可用有用输出功率 / 总输入功率。由于摩擦和热损失,没有设备能达到 100% 效率。
Renewable energy sources include solar, wind, hydroelectric, tidal, geothermal; non-renewable: fossil fuels, nuclear. Sankey diagrams show energy transformations with arrow widths proportional to energy.
可再生能源包括太阳能、风能、水力、潮汐、地热;不可再生能源:化石燃料、核能。桑基图用箭头宽度表示能量转化比例。
4. Pressure and Density | 压强和密度
Concept map centre: Pressure. Sub-branches: Density, Pressure in solids, Pressure in liquids, Atmospheric pressure.
概念图中心:压强。子分支:密度、固体压强、液体压强、大气压。
Density ρ = m / V (mass/volume), unit kg/m³. Object floats if ρ_object < ρ_fluid. Regular and irregular solid density measured via displacement.
密度 ρ = m / V(质量/体积),单位 kg/m³。若 ρ_物体 < ρ_流体,物体上浮。规则与不规则固体的密度可通过排水法测量。
Pressure P = F / A, unit pascal (Pa) = N/m². Same force on smaller area gives larger pressure – explains sharp knives, stiletto heels.
压强 P = F / A,单位帕斯卡 = N/m²。相同力作用于更小面积产生更大压强——解释锋利的刀、细高跟鞋。
Liquid pressure P = ρgh, where h is depth. Pressure at a point in a liquid acts equally in all directions and increases with depth. Dam walls are thicker at the bottom.
液体压强 P = ρgh,其中 h 为深度。液体中某点的压强向各个方向等大传播,并随深度增加。水坝底部墙壁更厚。
Atmospheric pressure measured with barometer (approx 101 kPa at sea level) and manometer. Pressure decreases with altitude. Gas pressure explained by molecular collisions with container walls.
大气压用气压计(海平面约 101 kPa)和 U 形管压强计测量。气压随高度升高而降低。气体压强由分子与容器壁碰撞解释。

热膨胀:多数固液气受热膨胀。应用:双金属片、铁轨缝隙、液体温度计。水在冰点附近反常膨胀(4 °C 时密度最大)。
Heat transfer: Conduction (mainly solids, free electrons/vibrations), convection (fluids, density changes cause circulation), radiation (infrared, travels through vacuum, dark/matt surfaces best absorbers and emitters).
热传递:传导(主要在固体,自由电子/振动),对流(流体中密度变化引起循环),辐射(红外线,可在真空中传播,暗色粗糙表面是最好的吸收体和发射体)。
Specific heat capacity: E = mcΔθ, where Δθ is temperature change. High c means more energy to heat up – water has high c (4200 J/(kg°C)). Latent heat: E = mL (no temperature change during state change). Fusion (melting) and vaporisation (boiling).
比热容:E = mcΔθ,Δθ 为温度变化。c 大表示升温需要更多能量——水的比热容很大。潜热:E = mL(状态变化时温度不变)。包括熔化潜热和汽化潜热。

Refraction: Light bends towards normal when entering denser medium, away when entering less dense. Snell’s law (relationship). Refractive index n = sin i / sin r. n also = speed of light in vacuum / speed in medium.
折射:光进入光密介质时向法线偏折,进入光疏介质时远离法线。折射定律:n = sin i / sin r。n 也等于真空中光速/介质中光速。
Total internal reflection occurs when light travels from dense to less dense medium at an angle greater than critical angle c, where sin c = 1/n. Used in optical fibres and prisms in periscopes.
全内反射:光从光密介质射向光疏介质且入射角大于临界角 c 时发生,sin c = 1/n。用于光纤和潜望镜中的棱镜。
Converging (convex) lens: can form real, inverted images (beyond F), or virtual, magnified image (object inside F). Diverging (concave) lens always forms virtual, diminished image. Magnification = image height / object height = v / u.
会聚(凸)透镜:可成倒立实像(物距 > 焦距),或正立放大虚像(物距 < 焦距)。发散(凹)透镜总是成缩小虚像。放大率 = 像高/物高 = v / u。
Dispersion: White light split into spectrum by prism because different colours have different speeds in glass (violet deviates most). Rainbow is dispersion by water droplets.
色散:白光通过棱镜分解成光谱,因为不同颜色的光在玻璃中速度不同(紫光偏折最大)。彩虹是水滴形成的色散现象。
8. Sound | 声

中心:声音。分支:本质、速度、回声、超声波、音调和响度。
Sound is a longitudinal wave produced by vibrating objects, requiring a medium (travels fastest in solids, slowest in gases). Cannot travel in vacuum.
声音是由振动体产生的纵波,需要介质传播(固体中最快,气体中最慢),不能在真空中传播。
Speed of sound in air ≈ 330–340 m/s. Echo: reflected sound, time delay used to measure distance (e.g., sonar, d = vt/2).
空气中的声速约 330–340 m/s。回声:反射声波,利用时间差测距(如声纳,d = vt/2)。
Ultrasound: frequency above 20 kHz, used for medical imaging (prenatal scans), industrial cleaning, and sonar. Cannot be heard by humans.
超声波:频率高于 20 kHz,用于医学成像(产前检查)、工业清洗和声纳。人类无法听见。
Pitch depends on frequency; loudness depends on amplitude (and ear sensitivity). A greater amplitude carries more energy. Oscilloscope traces compare frequency and amplitude directly.
音调取决于频率;响度取决于振幅(以及人耳敏感度)。振幅越大携带的能量越多。通过示波器波形可以直接比较频率和振幅。
