The topics that are covered in class XI
Volume I
1. Units and Dimensions
2. One dimensional motion
3. Two dimensional motion
4. Laws of motion
5. Work, energy and power
6. Rotational motion
7. Gravitation
Volume II
8. Properties of matter (solids and
fluids)
9. Thermal properties of matter
10. Kinetic theory of gases
11. Thermodynamics
12. Oscillations & Wave motion
The topics that are covered in class XII
Volume I & II (Unitwise)
1. Electrostatics
2. Current electricity
3. Magnetic effect of electric current & magnetism
4. EMI & Alternating current
5. Electromagnetic waves
6. Optics
7. Dual Nature of light
8. Atoms & Nuclei
9. Electronic Devies
10. Communication system
In terms of evaluation,
The theory part carries a weightage of 70 marks
The practical part carries a weightage of 30
marks
Theory
Practical
70
30
The practical again has 4 parts
1.Experiment
2.Activity (demonstration only)
3.Project
4.Viva
The evaluation is done at the end
of each term.
Basic concepts of mechanics,
gravitation,
waves,
light,
magnetism and electricity are
dealt in secondary level.
But
senior
secondary
curriculum
covers almost all the branches of
fundamental physics.
An
inclination
towards
mathematics, language skills
to comprehend scientific
terms and a scientific bent
of mind are needed to cope
the course content.
Various mathematical tools such as
graphical representation, calculus,
vectors, logarithm, trigonometry
etc.
will
be
used
to
derive/prove/support
various
concepts in physics. Thorough
knowledge in these concepts are
required
So the initial days of class XI
orientation will be given on the
following concepts:
Vector addition/ subtraction
Scalar and vector multiplication,
Differential and integral calculus.
This will help the students to
understand the concepts well.
Class X
Class XI
In class X most of the time
the evaluation is based on
remembering,
understanding and
application type questions.
The numericals are very
less.
In class XI & XII unless a
sustained effort is made to
solve all the numericals,
answering the numericals
may be difficult. Certain
concepts need regular
revision to comprehend in
a better way.
Rote learning may not give you a good result.
Class X
The course content of
science is very less.
Class XI
The course content is very
vast. What you have
studied as a single subject
is now divided into
individual subjects as
Physics/ chemistry/
Biology.
Each subject has two volumes of text book
Class X
Class XI
The syllabus is divided into
two terms and you need to
study only 50% of the
syllabus for each term.
The evaluation is spread
throughout the year with
an annual exam. The entire
course is evaluated in the
annual exam.
Remembering type 10%
Understanding type 30%
Evaluation type 16%
Application type 30%
HOTS 14%
Question paper pattern for SA1
and Annual exam is same as that
of 12th board paper
5(VSAQ) x 1 Mark = 5 Marks
5(SAQ I) x 2 Marks = 10 Marks
12(SAQ II) x 3 Marks = 36 Marks
1(VBQ) x 4 Marks = 4 Marks
3(LAQ) x 5Marks = 15 Marks
Total
= 70 Marks
Text book & Reference Books:
1. NCERT Text Book –Physics
Part I & 2
2. New simplified physics by
S.L. Arora (2 volumes for XI class)
3. Concepts of physics- H.C.Verma
4. Comprehensive physics
Part 1 and 2
5. Physics for competition vol 1 &2
(Batilal)
Competitive Exams
The following prestigious competitive
exams are meant for the students of
senior secondary level
1. NSEP/C/B/A – IAPT
2. PRL scholarship
3. KVPY
