What to Expect from CAPS Grade 11 Physical Sciences

Grade 11 Physical Sciences is widely regarded as the most challenging year of the course — covering an enormous range of conceptually demanding topics across both physics and chemistry. EdSoft's adaptive module ensures learners develop genuine mastery of every major topic rather than surface knowledge that will not hold up under examination.

Mechanics

Grade 11 mechanics extends to Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation, projectile motion in two dimensions, and impulse-momentum. Learners solve complex, multi-step force and motion problems with mathematical precision.

Electricity and Magnetism

Coulomb's Law and electric fields are introduced, and electric circuits are studied in quantitative depth — Ohm's Law, series and parallel circuits, power and energy, and the relationship between current, voltage, and resistance. Magnetic fields and electromagnetic induction are explored.

EdSoft's electricity exercises identify where learners are making circuit analysis errors and provide targeted circuit-diagram-based guidance.

Chemistry: Reactions in Aqueous Solution

Electrolytes, acids and bases (Brønsted-Lowry theory), and redox reactions are explored with quantitative rigour — learners write and balance ionic equations, calculate pH, and apply stoichiometry to solution chemistry.

Quantitative Aspects of Chemical Change

The mole concept — the central quantitative tool of chemistry — is fully developed, and learners apply molar calculations to stoichiometry, gas law problems, and solution chemistry.

How EdSoft Supports CAPS Grade 11 Physical Sciences

EdSoft's CAPS Grade 11 module develops the deep conceptual and quantitative understanding that Grade 12 demands through adaptive, exam-focused interactive content. Fully offline with real-time tracking.
