Course Syllabus

Welcome to AP Physics 1!  This is a rigorous, conceptual, mathematically-based university-level experimental science course which involves study of the world around us.  Some of the major topics are:  motion, forces, gravity, energy, mechanical waves and sound, electrostatics, and DC circuits.  This is a one-semester course (with daily 90-minute blocks) which will be followed by the AP Physics 1 exam in May of 2017.  The challenge this semester is that we have only two six-week grading periods to complete the course in time to review and prepare for the AP exam on May 2nd!
