Materials

AP Physics 1 is a rigorous full-year course divided into two semesters. Semester A focuses on kinematics, Newtonโ€™s law of motion, forces, work, energy, power, and momentum. Semester B expands these topics while focusing on torque, inertia, angular momentum, oscillations, and fluids. Throughout this course you will gain knowledge, skills, and understanding of key physics principles, as well as gain preparation for taking the AP Physics 1 Exam.
