Advanced Placement Physics 2 focusing on fluids, thermodynamics, and modern physics.
Modern physics includes revolutionary ideas like quantum mechanics and relativity, which go beyond classical physics to explain new phenomena.
At tiny scales, energy and matter behave in unexpected ways—particles can act like waves, and probabilities rule.
Discoveries about the atom’s nucleus and subatomic particles have led to technologies like nuclear power and medical imaging.
Einstein’s theory showed that space and time are linked, and nothing can go faster than light.
Modern physics has transformed technology and our understanding of the universe.
MRI scanners use principles of quantum mechanics to image the body.
GPS satellites must account for relativity to provide accurate locations.
Modern physics explores the weird and wonderful behaviors of matter and energy at the smallest and fastest scales.
