Physics Formulae List

Dear students, you can download a copy of the H2 Physics Formulae List (Syllabus 9478) used for the A Level Physics syllabus in 2026 here.

This Physics Data and Formulae List will be provided within the question paper itself, after the cover page and before the questions of the Paper 1, 2 and 3 examinations (syllabus code: 9478).

As an A Level Physics specialist, I will usually still encourage students to memorise most of the values and formulae provided in the list. This will help you save the hassle of flipping the question paper back and forth while taking the examination. Some of these data and Formulae should become very familiar after ample practice after the course of the 2 years.

Alternatively, you can view the A Level Physics Formulae list in the pictures below.

Using the Physics Formulae List

There are some things that students need to be mindful of when using the Physics Formulae List.

Firstly, students must be aware of the 2 conditions required to apply the Kinematics formulae. Acceleration needs to be constant and motion needs to be linear. Hence, these formulae are not appropriate for questions involving circular motion and simple harmonic motion.

Secondly, the formula for the displacement of particle in simple harmonic motion can be modified. If the particle starts from equilibrium position, we can use the sine function as per given in the formulae list. However, if the particle starts from maximum displacement i.e. amplitude position, we will need to use cosine function instead.

Thirdly, none of the formulae learnt in the topic of Superposition are provided. Hence, A level students must memorise the required formulae for double slit experiment, single slit experiment, Rayleigh’s criterion and diffraction grating.

Fourthly, students must know what n in the formula for magnetic flux density due to a long solenoid represents. n does not represent the total number of turns of the solenoid. Instead, n represents the number of turns of the solenoid per unit length. Hence, to calculate n, students will have to take the total number of turns of the solenoid divided by the total length.

1 to 1 H2 Physics Tuition

To cope with the rigour of the Physics A Level syllabus, it is important to not just know how to apply the Physics Formulae List. Students are also required to know the conditions, independent variable (cause) and dependent variable (effect) for each of the formulae.

In addition, it is also important to establish good habits when forming your own free body diagram equations and conservation of energy equations etc.

Having 1 to 1 H2 Physics tuition with an experienced A Level tutor like Mr Mitch Peh can tremendously help you achieve these requirements. You can contact Mr Mitch Peh at
