AP PHYSICS C MECHANICS
Sample of Handouts
This class does not require any physics background; it will build your physics skyscraper from zero. However, student must at least take Calculus AB at the same time.
AP Physics C class is designed for aggressive students or whoever plans to major in engineering or science in college. Physics, the most fundamental physical science, is concerned with the basic principles of the Universe. It is the foundation upon which the other Physical sciences—astronomy, chemistry, geology and others—are based. The beauty of physics lies in the simplicity of the fundamental physical theories and in the manner in which just a small number of fundamental concepts, equations, and assumptions can alter and expand our view of the world around us. Mechanics is of vital importance to students from all disciplines. It is highly successful in describing the motions of material bodies, such as planets, rockets, and tennis balls.
