AP Physics

AP Physics

AP Physics includes two, separate examinations that are offered as part of the College Board's Advanced Placement Program.

*AP Physics B is a science course that is separated into five different sections of study: Newtonian Mechanics, Electricity and Magnetism, Fluid Mechanics and Thermal Physics, Waves and Optics, and Atomic and Nuclear Physics.

*AP Physics C focuses on Newtonian Mechanics, Electricity and Magnetism. Use of calculus in problem solving and in derivations is expected.
