I believe it's possible to succeed at IB physics with no prior knowledge, but you will have to put a lot of work in to get a grade 7. Being good at maths helps a bit, but in my experience, my teacher has taught concepts that I might not have covered in my maths lessons yet, so the maths component is not something that is too hard.

Did the grade boundaries not change? Is a 7 not 78% for a 7 in 2024? I'm in TZ2 and I'm pretty sure my teacher said its 78% for a seven now.
@gradepod
@gradepod 3 ай бұрын
The grade boundaries change every year. However, a 7 in IB Physics averages around 68% for HL. The grade boundaries for May 2024 have not been released yet, but anecdotal evidence from individual student results suggests that it has NOT increased to 78% (it remains around 68%) - including TZ2.

Thank you for the video. I was just wondering whether the data used for the IA must be collected by us students in the lab or whether we can use data we find on the internet to carry out our investigation. I am asking this because having to carry out the experiment ourselves obviously reduces the array of possibilities significantly and from what I am understanding from my teachers they highly recommend recording the data ourselves. What are your thoughts about this, what would you advise us to do? Thank you!
@gradepod
@gradepod Жыл бұрын
I highly recommend collecting the data yourself too. The research question does not have to be original, you do not have to find an amazingly different or complicated research question. Just find one that can be completed in the school laboratory (or at home) and a little bot of 'flair' or personal input can be added to the data collection to make it differ from a standard lab experiment.

HI @shimakhalid8455 - you're moving the right direction with this, but you need to be MUCH more specific. What do you mean by velocity of an object? This is too vague. Something like "How does the depth of a ping pong ball held below the surface of water affect the velocity of the ball at a depth of 5cm, as the buoyancy force directs it back to the surface?"

Hello, I have a question about how to go about this. I was planning on creating my own parachute, but how does this work with projectile motion. Would I use a pre made machine to project the object? How does the experimental part work. I think I would know how to do the math, I am just unsure how to go about creating a lab. It would be inaccurate to just throw the projectile, so how do I go about this? Thank you

I’d love to help you further but this work of determining the actual steps to collect your data is kind of the whole point of the internal investigation! I can’t help you with this. The best thing to make a method is to work on each variable individually. Independent: cross-sectional area - how to vary and measure Dependent: range - how to measure Control: initial velocity, angle, etc.- how to keep constant.

Hello. Actually my physics IA invovled measuring the time period of a pendulum vs the angle and I used the phet colorado simulation for it. Firstly there was a pandemic and my house is not large enough to accommadate for experiments. Secondly the difference between time periods for difference of ten degrees is like 0.02-0.05s and I don't think humans can react fast enough to conclude anything as even with multiple trials the error bars are going to be huge because the difference is literally very small. But it is there. So because of that there are no errors. No uncertainty because the simulation measures everything. But the markscheme talks a lot about error calculation and uncertainty and I don't know if my IA will get less marks. Like what can I do if the IA requires perfect data and it exists. If I lose marks for personal engagement it's understandable because I didn't look for a solution for the real world experiment. But I don't want to lose marks in other criterias.
@gradepod
@gradepod 2 жыл бұрын
You can still gain good marks using a simulation, even describing the issues you faced above. Part of completing your physics IA will be to find a simulation that is as true to an experiment as possible - you've done that using PheT. It is not expected that a simulation will be perfect (it won't) but this checklist will help you decide the suitability of your simulation. - Do the variables reflect those that would be encountered in a real-life situation? - Do the variables generate data that conforms to standard, recognisable units? - Are visualisations misleading in any way? - Is the simulation freely available to a moderator or examiner? - Does the simulation allow for a suitable range of values for each of the variables in the investigation? - Are there enough variables with enough detail to draw meaningful conclusions? - Does the simulation or database provide enough data points? - Does the simulation or database allow for multiple runs? - Is there variation in the results with each repeat run? - Can the data be processed independently by students? IMPORTANT NOTE: if the simulation you choose to use does not answer "YES" to all these questions above - that's ok! Your method or evaluation in the IA report should show that consideration is given to the above points and that creative solutions to make good any shortcomings in the simulation are considered. In fact, it could be considered that a less-than-perfect simulation is more useful than a perfect one as it allows you to find creative and personal solutions.

Hello. I thought of an idea for my Physics IA and my teacher said the idea was alright. However I am still anxious whether it is too simple and wanted to get a second opinion on it. My RQ is "How does the steepness of the ramp affect the speed of the marble at the bottom of the ramp?"
@gradepod
@gradepod 2 жыл бұрын
Hi Teodora. I've had students who have investigated, "How does the angle of the ramp affect the time taken for a cylinder to reach the bottom of the ramp?" and have received a 7 - so the concept of something rolling down a slope is not too simple. However.... when using a cylinder (instead of a marble) it's easier to take the effects of friction into account. I think you really should be developing it a little further (i.e. considering friction) to get those high marks. I'd also say that your independent variable of 'steepness' is too vague and not precise enough.
