Welcome to AP Physics 2!!

If you have not taken AP Physics 1, the summer assignment this year will have seven different parts. If you have taken AP Physics 1, then only part 0.6 is required, but feel free to look at the rest for review.

I recommend that you observe the following deadlines:

Linearization and Kinematics – June 25th

Dynamics – July 9th

Energy – July 23rd

Momentum – August 6th

Intro to Thermodynamics- August 20th

If you have any difficulties please let me know, although I will have no email access from May 30 - August 10. We will have a brief review of this content (mainly Thermodynamics) on the first day of class, then move into our first unit on Thermodynamics.

Note: The textbook that these are based off of is NOT the textbook for our course. The assignments were made off of the OpenSTAX book since it is an online, free resource and available to you for the summer.

This year, our calendar is roughly as follows:

September: Thermodynamics

October: Electrostatics

Nov/Dec: Electric Circuits

January: Magnetism

February: Geometric Optics and Review for the Midterm

March: Waves, Sound, and Physical Optics

April: Modern Physics

May: Review and AP Exam
