Why do we need the Sun energy? How is electrical energy produced? What will happen when fossil fuels run out? This title looks at what energy is, why we need it, and how it is transferred. Find out how nuclear energy works, discover how animals conserve heat energy, and take a closer look at future energy sources. How can a car accelerate yet stay at the same speed? What force enables airplanes to fly? Why is it almost impossible to sink in the Dead Sea? This title looks at all the forces that operate in the world, from the simple pushes and pulls exerted by our muscles to the mysterious force of gravity. This book explains how forces such as momentum, friction and pressure affect our lives and presents the laws that describe how forces work. What the difference between heat and temperature? Where are the hottest and coldest places on Earth? How do snow caves keep people warm? This title looks at why substances change from solid to liquid to gas, how heat energy moves, and in which ways humans use this knowledge in their everyday lives. Find out how the Sun energy affects Earth weather, how we can see? heat energy, and what happens in a substance when it freezes or boils. How is light like waves in the ocean? What causes a mirage? How do eyes our translate light into the things we see? What are some forms of light than we cannot see? This title looks at the fascinating nature of light, how it measured, and how it behaves. The book examines some of the exciting ways that light is being used in medicine, astronomy, and communications. It also discusses what the study of the most distant light in space tells us about the origin and future of the universe. How does magnetism help birds find their way home? How do magnets help power your computer? What distant objects have the strongest magnetic fields in the universe? This title looks at the fascinating properties of objects that repel and attract one another. The book explores the magnetic universe and how the magnetic nature of our planet gives clues about its past. It also examines electromagnetism, the special force that helps power most of the machines we use each day.
Why does a siren sound change as it passes you? How does sound become music? Can sound damage our ears? This title looks at what sound is, how sound is made, how sound waves travel, and how humans and other animals hear sound. Find out why sound travels faster through water than through air, how it is possible to 'see' using sound, and how sound is recorded. Who discovered electrons, protons, and neutrons? What is antimatter? Could atomic research help scientists cure cancer? This book tells the amazing story of the discovery of the atom and the particles that exist inside it, and explains how scientists have used these discoveries in incredible ways. What is light and where does it come from? Can light be slowed to a stop? How do scientists plan to make an invisibility cloak? This book explains how scientists realized that all light comes from atoms and how one day they might use light to teleport objects across space. How did the Universe begin? Who first measured the distance to a star? What is the mysterious force called dark energy? This title tells the amazing story of astronomy, from the ancient belief that all the planets revolve around Earth to the latest discoveries about how fast the universe is expanding. How are heat, light, magnetism, and electricity connected? Who invented the electric motor? What is nuclear fusion? This titles tells the amazing story of energy, from the heat produced by a simple wood fire to the extraordinary power contained in an atom.

Moreover, some new reference books for A-Level students: A Level Physics (Topical) 2007 Edition, A Level Physics Problems and Solutions, An Excellence Guide to AL Physics Vol.1 and 2, are available in School Library. Let's go to Library and check it out!
