Introduction

• Questions: Internal energy vs. temperature (e.g., during a phase change). Ideal gas equation ( pV = nRT ) with real-world contexts like a car tire heating up.
• Pitfall: Assuming pressure is constant when volume is heated in a sealed container (Charles' Law only applies if pressure is constant).

• Difficulty: 7/10 (High for a first-year exam).
• Relevance: Highly predictive of A-Level success; students who fail to grasp Mechanics in JC1 often struggle with Electromagnetism in JC2.
• Advice: Treat the Promo paper not just as a hurdle to clear, but as a diagnostic tool. If you cannot comfortably handle Forces and Energy now, you must relearn them before JC2 starts.
