AP Physics B Class

AP Physics has two curriculums and related exams. First one is called AP Physics B and essentially covers overview of physics without any calculus (i.e. pre-calculus level only). (Second one is called AP Physics C and deals mainly with Mechanics and Electricity/Magnetism and requires extensive use of calculus.)

We offer AP Physics B. This will cover Mechanics, Fluid Mechanics, Thermal Physics and Thermodynamics, Electricity and Magnetism, Waves and Optics, Atomic and Nuclear Physics.

No textbook is presently required.

This is a very extensive coverage and will be covered over two years.  Prerequisite: Pre-calculus
