Grade 10 Physical Sciences
4 Seasons
Grade 10 Physical Sciences provides students with a foundational understanding of the
basic principles and concepts. The curriculum typically covered a range of topics in physics
and chemistry making it easy for students to ace written exams, practical experiments, and
projects.

State of matter and the kinetic theory of matter
Episode 4
This lesson will help you understand the kinetic molecular theory, define diffusion and link it to the Brownian motion, investigate the characteristics of all 3 phases of matter using the kinetic theory of matter and define evaporation, melting and freezing point. Also condensation and finally su...

16:14Episode 6
Isotopes and electron configurations
Episode 6
In this lesson we take a look at isotopes and electron configuration. We define what an isotope is, calculate relative atomic mass, atomic numbers , atomic orbitals and the Aufbau diagrams via the principles and understand Hund’s rule and a shorter way to compute the notion known as noble gas con...

Periodic table
Episode 7
We look at the periodic table as a tool that organises the elements in a systematic way, we also looked at how to identify metals, non-metals and the transition metals positioning.

Transverse and longitudinal waves part 1
Episode 9
In this lesson we look at transverse and longitudinal waves and define what they are and the functions.
-
10:45Episode 10
Transverse and longitudinal waves part 2
Episode 10
We continue the lesson and learn about sound waves as a type of longitudinal waves.

13:58Episode 11
Electromagnetic radiation
Episode 11
In this lesson we look at the dual nature of electromagnetic radiation, understand the EM spectrum and how the waves are produced and how to do calculations related to constant values and SI units.
