Making revision cards from your OCR A-Level physics course

Revising for OCR A-Level physics means holding hundreds of equations, definitions and practical details in memory until the exam. AI-made Anki flashcards for OCR A-Level physics start from material you already have, so you spend less time copying notes and more time testing yourself.

  • Definitions with units, such as those for work, power and pressure
  • Equations with the meaning of each symbol and the conditions for use
  • Practical method steps and the variables you need to control
  • Worked examples turned into question and answer pairs
Example OCR A-Level physics flashcards
What is the difference between a scalar and a vector quantity?A scalar has magnitude only, while a vector has both magnitude and direction, such as velocity and displacement.
State Newton's second law of motion.The rate of change of momentum of a body is proportional to the resultant force and takes place in the direction of that force. For constant mass this gives F = ma.
What is the energy stored in a stretched spring?E = ½kx², where k is the spring constant and x is the extension, provided the spring obeys Hooke's law.
What is the photoelectric effect?Electrons are emitted from a metal surface when light of high enough frequency hits it, and below the threshold frequency no electrons are emitted however bright the light is.
What is the de Broglie wavelength of a particle?λ = h/p, where h is the Planck constant and p is the momentum of the particle.

Reads your material

Upload PDFs, PPTX slides, DOCX files, plain notes or photos of pages. Text recognition reads images too.

Spaced repetition

Cards return at increasing intervals, so equations and definitions get reviewed just before you would forget them.

Anki export on Plus

Export your deck to Anki, or to PDF, DOCX or CSV. The Free plan covers browser study only.

How it works

Upload your notes

Add a topic PDF, a set of slides or a photo of a textbook page.

Check the cards

Read through the generated fronts and backs and edit any line that does not match your specification notes.

Study or export

Revise in the browser with spaced repetition, or export the deck to Anki on Plus.

Upload lecture slides, condensed notes or a scanned worksheet, and DeckOwl turns them into question-and-answer cards. Check each card against your textbook, since generated cards can miss a sign convention or a unit.

Spaced repetition then brings the difficult cards back more often. That suits physics, where equations need repeated recall before they stick.

Frequently asked questions

How many flashcards should I make for OCR A-Level physics?

Aim for one card per definition, equation or practical idea rather than a fixed total. Split long topics such as waves or mechanics into smaller sets so each review session stays short.

Which OCR A-Level physics topics work best as flashcards?

Definitions, unit conversions, equations with their symbols and practical method steps suit flashcards well. Multi-step calculations and derivations are better practiced as worked problems alongside the cards.

Can I export my physics cards to Anki?

Yes, Anki export is included in the Plus plan, which also adds PDF, DOCX and CSV export. The Free plan lets you study in the browser but does not include exports.

Is there a free plan?

The Free plan includes 3 generations per month with browser study and no exports. No credit card is needed to start, and students get 40% off with a school email.
