SPH3U is the Grade 11 University Physics course that connects the math you've learned to how the physical world actually works — from motion and forces to electricity and waves. An Ontario Ministry of Education-approved online course, SPH3U is the prerequisite for Grade 12 University Physics (SPH4U) and supports any university program in engineering, physical science, or medicine. Earn your OSSD credit at your own pace with flexible scheduling, no final exam, and support from Ontario Certified Teachers.

Course Curriculum

What you'll cover in SPH3U

  • Kinematics: Describing Motion - Students learn to describe and analyze the motion of objects using position, displacement, velocity, and acceleration. Through graphical analysis and kinematic equations, students model motion in one and two dimensions including projectile motion, developing the mathematical precision needed for all subsequent physics study.
  • Forces and Newton's Laws: Why Things Move - Students examine the causes of motion by studying forces and Newton's three laws. Topics include free-body diagrams, friction, tension, gravity, and net force calculations. Students apply Newton's laws to real-world systems and develop the problem-solving approach central to physics: identifying forces, setting up equations, and interpreting results.
  • Energy, Work, and Power: How the World Does Work - Students investigate how energy is transferred and transformed in physical systems. Topics include work, kinetic energy, gravitational potential energy, power, and efficiency. Students analyze real-world systems to understand how energy conservation governs physical processes.
  • Waves and Sound: Energy in Motion - Students study mechanical waves and sound, examining wave properties such as amplitude, frequency, wavelength, and speed, as well as wave behaviours including reflection, refraction, diffraction, and interference. Applications range from musical instruments and acoustics to medical ultrasound and communication technologies.
  • Electricity and Magnetism: Charges, Fields, and Circuits - Students examine electric charge, electric fields, current, voltage, and resistance, and apply these concepts to analyze series and parallel circuits. The unit connects electrical principles to everyday technologies and introduces the relationship between electricity and magnetism.

As parents of a student who has completed a course with Ontario Education Online we would like to take this opportunity to thank Mr. Ramos for his continuous care, support and professionalism. Every step of the way our son was able to receive feedback and ongoing support. The ability to access course materials through platforms like Google Classroom made learning both convenient and efficient, helping develop strong organizational skills and time-management skills. This improved the overall learning experience. Our sons experience with OEO has been invaluable, and we would highly recommend it to others seeking a flexible and engaging learning environment.
