Commonly asked Questions
Study
Find advice and information about studying physics at school and university.
Study is separated into three main areas: school (contains useful revision advice), university (information about finding and choosing a university physics course), and publications (a list of publications for physics students available from the Institute of Physics).
If you have already decided that you want to study physics at university, use Physics on Course, our comprehensive list of university physics courses, to find one that’s right for you.
School

Some remarkable physics facts
- When a flea jumps, the rate of acceleration is 20 times that of the space shuttle during launch
- If every star in the Milky Way was a grain of salt they would fill an Olympic sized swimming pool.
- 12 Astronauts have walked on the moon, bringing back 382 kilograms of rocks, pebbles, sand and dust between them
- Whales talk to each other by making a loud clicking noise. The sound waves travel extremely well underwater so they can hear each other from 100 miles away.
- A TV screen shows 24 pictures a second. Because a fly sees 200 images a second, it would see TV as still pictures with darkness in between.
- Cats can see clearly in one-sixth the amount of light we humans would need. This is due to a special layer of cells at the back of their retinas, which acts like a mirror, reflecting light back to the retina's cells.
- In 1936 Professor Alfred Gaydon underwent surgery on his eyes after an accident. When his sight began to return he found that he could see ultra-violet light, which is normally beyond the visible spectrum of humans. This helped in his work as a physicist, but it did distort how he saw other colours!
- The Eiffel Tower is 15cm taller in summer because of thermal expansion.
- Some people who have two or more different kinds of fillings in their teeth are able to hear high-power AM broadcast stations when located within a few hundred feet of the stations. In such cases, the radio waves act upon the teeth fillings in such a way that the electromagnetic oscillations get transformed to mechanical vibrations in the person's head, and these are heard as sound.
- The amount of sunlight reaching the earth's surface is 6,000 times the amount of energy used by all human beings worldwide. The total amount of fossil fuel used by humans since the start of civilization is equivalent to less than 30 days of sunshine.
