AP Physics C<br />

Mechanics (A/B)<br />

AP® Physics C Mechanics is equivalent to approximately a<br />

semester of college work using introductory differential and<br />

integral calculus throughout the course. AP® Physics C<br />

Mechanics provides an in-depth coverage of concepts using<br />

guided inquiry and student-centered learning to foster the<br />

development of critical thinking skills, The course provides<br />

instruction in each of the following six content areas:<br />

kinematics; Newton’s laws of motion; work, energy and power;<br />

system of particles and linear momentum; circular motion and<br />

rotation; and oscillations and gravitation. Students are<br />

encouraged to take the national exam given in May which<br />

many colleges accept for college credit.<br />
