AP® Physics C - Mechanics
& AP® Physics C - Electricity and Magnetism

Girls-Only & ​All-Genders Course;
Prerequisite - Successful completion of Calculus; 
​Full-Year Course
AP® Physics C is a calculus-based, college-level physics course. The course, which is especially designed for students planning to enter college programs such as engineering or physical sciences, covers both AP® Physics C courses: Mechanics and Electricity and Magnetism. In the first semester, students explore the principles of Newtonian mechanics, work, energy, power, systems of particles, linear momentum, circular motion, rotation, oscillations, and gravitation. The second semester covers the principles of electrostatics, conductors, circuits, fields, and electromagnetism. Students master topics that build understanding of the primary College Board curriculum, focusing on the ability to reason qualitatively and quantitatively, including the use of differential and integral calculus. Students develop a methodical approach to problem solving and an inquiry-based approach to learning. This course is intended to prepare students for the AP® Physics C Mechanics and E&M Exams in May.
"It’s noticing the way things work beneath your own nose. Seeing things from a different perspective is really great. You can see there are multiple ways of doing things, and instead of just picking one, you can take a little bit from each way. I think it’s definitely helped me and I’m really glad I got to do it.”
