IGCSE Physics Formula Sheet and Key Equations Singapore
An IGCSE physics formula sheet helps you recall key equations and constants in the exam. This guide summarises the type of formulae that appear on Cambridge and Edexcel IGCSE Physics and how to use them for revision in Singapore. It also notes IAL Physics formula sheets for A-Level and IGCSE physics formula sheet 2025 and later.
What is on an IGCSE physics formula sheet?
Formula sheets for IGCSE Physics usually list equations for motion (e.g. speed, acceleration, equations of motion), forces (e.g. Newton’s laws, momentum), energy (e.g. kinetic, potential, power), waves (e.g. wave equation, frequency), electricity (e.g. current, voltage, resistance, power), and magnetism. Exam boards may provide an official sheet in the exam or require you to memorise some formulae. Check your syllabus and past papers to see what is given. For 2025 and later, confirm with the latest syllabus in case of changes.
IAL Physics formula sheet
If you are doing Edexcel International A-Level Physics, the IAL physics formula sheet is separate and includes more advanced equations (e.g. more detailed mechanics, fields, quantum topics). Use the official Edexcel formula booklet for IAL; do not rely on IGCSE formula sheets for A-Level exams.
Where to get formula sheets
Your teacher or exam board website often provides a formula list. Use official Cambridge or Edexcel resources. Do not rely on unofficial sheets without checking they match your syllabus and series. Combine with IGCSE past papers and tuition for full preparation. For chemistry formulae, see our IGCSE chemistry formula sheet guide.
Using the physics formula sheet in revision and in the exam
When you revise, use the IGCSE physics formula sheet (or the one your board gives) alongside past papers: for each question that needs a formula, find it on the sheet and write it down before solving. That way you learn where each equation is and when to use it. In the exam, if a formula is on the sheet, you do not need to memorise it, but you must know when to use it and how to substitute values. For Singapore students, combining the formula sheet with IGCSE past papers and, if needed, IGCSE Physics tuition (e.g. on Tutopiya) helps you apply the formulae correctly under time pressure. For IAL Physics (A-Level), use the separate IAL physics formula sheet from Edexcel.
