Question 1

What will I learn in Physics I?

Accepted Answer

The first semester of Physics is an introduction to mechanics. Topic studies include uniform and accelerated linear motion, graphical representation of motion, forces, vectors, projectile and circular motion, gravitation, momentum, work and power. Each unit of the course is supported by one or more labs in which students observe and verify the principles learned in preparation for the Maryland Integrated Science Assessment (MISA). The second semester of Physics starts with a study of mechanical energy. Subsequently energy is studied in the forms of heat, sound and light. The heat unit emphasizes principles of heat exchange. The study of light includes the elementary optics of curved mirrors and lenses and diffraction. Students in the Honors Physics follow the same curriculum, but Honors students will be exposed to greater depth and more challenging problems.
