A comprehensive curriculum designed for High School and AP Physics mastery, focusing on rigorous conceptual understanding and mathematical application.
Units & Measurements
The foundation of physical science: SI units, dimensional analysis, and the mathematics of precision and error.
Motion (Kinematics)
Describing motion in 1D and 2D using vectors, projectile motion analysis, and kinematic equations.
Force & Dynamics
Newton’s Laws of Motion, friction, and the causal relationship between forces and translational dynamics.
Work, Power & Energy
The Work-Energy Theorem, conservation of mechanical energy, and the physics of power systems.
Linear Momentum
Impulse, momentum conservation, and the analysis of elastic and inelastic collisions.
Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM)
Oscillatory systems, pendulums, and mass-spring dynamics governed by restoring forces.
Circular Motion
Centripetal force, uniform circular motion, and the physics of gravitation and planetary orbits.
Rotation
Torque, moment of inertia, and rotational kinematics—the angular counterparts to linear motion.
Fluid Mechanics
Hydrostatics and hydrodynamics: Bernoulli’s principle, buoyancy, and fluid flow properties.
Thermodynamics
Heat, temperature, and the laws of thermodynamics governing energy transfer in systems.
Lights & Optics
Reflection, refraction, and the wave-particle duality of light through lenses and mirrors.
Electricity & Magnetism
Electric fields, circuits, and magnetic induction—the forces that power the modern world.
AP PHYSICS & COLLEGE PREPARATORY
Curriculum aligned with College Board standards for AP Physics 1, 2, and C.
