Physics Equations Sheet - GCSE Combined Science: Trilogy (8464) and GCSE Combined Science: Synergy (8465) - HT Higher Tier only equations - For use in June 2026 only

Sep 5, 2026

Physics equations sheet for GCSE Combined Science covering key formulae across energy, power, efficiency, charge and potential difference, momentum, forces, waves and density. Includes standard relationships such as kinetic, elastic and gravitational potential energy, thermal energy changes, power as energy transferred over time, efficiency expressed via useful output over total input, and electrical links including Q=It and V=IR. Also provides mechanical equations for weight, work, acceleration, momentum, period and wave speed, plus magnetic force on a current-carrying conductor.
