Question 1

What will I learn in AP PHYSICS 1: Algebra-Based?

Accepted Answer

This course is the equivalent to a first semester college course in algebra-based physics. The course covers Newtonian mechanics (including rotational dynamics & angular momentum); work, energy, and power; and simple harmonic motion. This course no longer includes mechanical waves, sound or electric circuits. The course is double-blocked and meets once every day for 90 minutes, all year long. Prerequisites: NC Math 2 and should be concurrently taking NC Math 3 or an equivalent course. Although the Physics 1 course includes basic use of trigonometric functions, this understanding can be gained either in the concurrent math course or in the AP Physics 1 course itself. No prior course work in physics is necessary.
