(11-12) - Credit: 1.0
Prerequisite: Concurrent enrollment in AP Calculus
This course is designed to be the equivalent of a calculus based, college level physics course. Major topics include: mechanics (kinematics, dynamics, work, energy, momentum, circular motion, rotations, oscillations and gravitation) and electricity and magnetism (electrostatics, capacitors, circuits, and electromagnetism). The course will utilize guided inquiry and student-centered learning to foster development of critical thinking skills and uses differential and integral calculus throughout the course. This course will prepare students to take the AP Physics C exam given by the College Board in May each school year. Credit cannot be given for both Physics Dual Credit and AP Physics C.
