AP Exams are given each year in May. Students who earn a qualifying score on an AP Exam are typically eligible to receive college credit and/or placement into advanced courses in college. Every aspect of AP course and exam development is the result of collaboration between AP teachers and college faculty.They work together to develop AP courses and exams, set scoring standards, and score the exams. College faculty review every AP teacher’s course syllabus.  \nAP Physics Program  \nThe AP Program offers four physics courses: AP Physics 1: Algebrabased, AP Physics 2: Algebra-based, AP Physics C: Mechanics, and  \nAP Physics C: Electricity and Magnetism.  \nGuided by the National Research Council and National Science Foundation, the AP Program collaborated with college and university educators and AP teachers to develop two, yearlong AP Physics courses to replace AP Physics B.  \nAP Physics 1: Algebra-based and AP Physics 2: Algebra-based are the equivalent of the first and second semesters of introductory, algebra-based college courses. Because these courses are intended to be yearlong courses, teachers have time to foster deeper conceptual understanding through student-centered, inquiry-based instruction. Students have time to master foundational physics principles while engaging in science practices to earn credit or placement.  \nIn addition, there are two AP Physics C courses: Physics C: Mechanics and Physics C: Electricity and Magnetism. Each corresponds to one semester of an introductory, calculus-based college course. Physics C: Mechanics is taught prior to Physics C:  \nElectricity and Magnetism.  \nAP Physics 1: Algebra-Based Course Overview  \nAP Physics 1 is an algebra-based, introductory college-level physics course that explores topics such as Newtonian mechanics (including rotational motion); work, energy, and power; mechanical waves and sound; and introductory, simple circuits.Through inquirybased learning, students will develop scientific critical thinking and reasoning skills.  \n LABOrAtOry requirement:   \nThis course requires that 25 percent of the instructional time will be spent in hands-on laboratory work, with an emphasis on inquirybased investigations that provide students with opportunities to apply the science practices.  \n PrerequiSite:   \nStudents should have completed geometry and be concurrently taking Algebra II or an equivalent course. Although the Physics 1 course includes basic use of trigonometric functions, this understanding can be gained either in the concurrent math course or in the AP Physics 1 course itself.  \nNo prior course work in physics is necessary.  \nAP Physics 1 Course Content  \nStudents explore principles of Newtonian mechanics (including rotational motion); work, energy, and power; mechanical waves and sound; and introductory, simple circuits. The course is based on six Big Ideas, which encompass core scientific principles, theories, and processes that cut across traditional boundaries and provide abroad way of thinking about the physical world. The following are Big Ideas:  \n• Objects and systems have properties such as mass and charge. Systems may have internal structure.  \n• Fields existing in space can be used to explain interactions.  \n• The interactions of an object with other objects can be described by forces.  \n• Interactions between systems can result in changes in those systems.  \n• Changes that occur as a result of interactions are constrained by conservation laws.  \n• Waves can transfer energy and momentum from one location to another without the permanent transfer of mass and serve as a mathematical model for the description of other phenomena.  \nScience Practices","cbCaigrYm8Ttvd4B","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaigrYm8Ttvd4B","pdf",1116188,"English","# About the Advanced Placement Program\n# AP Physics Program\n# AP Physics 1: Algebra-Based Course Overview\n## Laboratory Requirement\n## Prerequisite\n# AP Physics 1 Course Content\n# Science Practices\n## Inquiry-Based Investigations\n# AP Physics 1 Exam Structure","[{\"question\":\"What topics are covered in AP Physics 1?\",\"answer\":\"AP Physics 1 explores Newtonian mechanics (including rotational motion), work, energy, and power, mechanical waves and sound, and introductory simple circuits.\"},{\"question\":\"What is the laboratory requirement for AP Physics 1?\",\"answer\":\"Twenty-five percent of instructional time is devoted to hands-on laboratory work focused on inquiry-based investigations.\"},{\"question\":\"How is the AP Physics 1 exam structured?\",\"answer\":\"The exam lasts 3 hours and includes multiple-choice and free-response sections based on learning objectives combining science practices and specific content.\"}]","AP Physics 1 - Course Overview | PDF",1789901185]
