Here is your summer assignment-due the first day of class in September. Physics requires strong math skills – particularly in algebra and trigonometry. Many problems in Physics require the application of principles that you have studied in your math courses. This packet reviews mathematical concepts with which you should already be familiar. If you don’t remember the concept well (or at all) you need to find some outside resource to help you – a book, a friend, the internet.  \nThe packet will be graded – it will be your first grade in AP Physics – and will also provide a review of some of the material from the past year, or an introduction to that material if you did not take Physics yet. This is material that you will need to understand to start your work in AP Physics. The more effort you put into this assignment, the better prepared you will be for class. This is a long assignment – if you leave it until the last week (or day) of Summer Break, you will be overwhelmed and you will not learn the material. You should be working on it a bit at a time the whole summer.  \nSome things to know about AP Physics 1:  \nAP Physics is not just plugging in numbers. The course focuses more on concepts. Almost every problem is new and different – including the ones on the actual AP exam. The problems are about applying the concepts to the problem at hand, not being able to follow a prescribed set of steps for a problem.  \nA review book is helpful – there are many good ones available. For students who have not taken Regents Level Physics, you are advised to buy a general review book (Barrons Physics Review is a good book, but not the only one) and do some reading. If you are looking for a review book to help you with the course during the year there are several good AP Physics 1 review books out there. (The Princeton Review AP Physics 1 Exam, 5 Steps to a 5 AP Physics 1: Algebra-Based by Greg Jacobs are two that come to mind.)  \nThere are a lot of good websites for help with Physics concepts –  \nprettygoodphysics, thephysicsclassroom, ColoradoPhET, MIT open courses,  \nKhan Academy, AP central, Flippin’ Physics,  \nLook them over during the summer. (You will be using some of these for this assignment.)  \nAP Physics 1 – is very heavy on explanation – that is, not just applying math concepts, but explaining, in depth, the concepts that underlie a problem and the reasoning behind your solution. Yes, there is writing in Physics. Einstein wrote papers, Dr. Michio Kaku writes books, and you, too, will write. Review the alphabet. You will find it useful.  \nFor calculations:  \nMany times in AP Physics you will be required to show all of your calculation or derivations steps. You have to show calculations in a logical, orderly manner (neatness counts here – a whole lot, in fact) . The idea is that your calculations can be easily followed by another reader, researcher, or – more to the point for you – an APExam grader.  \nIt does not matter if you, personally, do not like to show steps. It does not matter if you, personally, are not the neatest person in the world. Calculations, like writing, are a communication – both with another person and with your future self when you look over your work. Poor logic sequence in calculation or leaving out steps necessary for someone to follow the flow of the problem is the same as mixing up tenses and skipping words in writing – it makes what you are trying to say with your calculation incomprehensible. One more time – it matters, no kidding, get used to it.  \nFor any work that requires calculations, you need to show all of your work-that means  \n- Show the equation or equations that you are using  \n- Show the steps using the starting equations to derive an overall equation for the situation (often, this will be where you stop-many derivations are about deriving the equation and using it for prediction, not actually solvin","cbCail0ozmMlPIaL","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCail0ozmMlPIaL","pdf",1208036,22,"English","# AP Physics 1 Summer Assignment\n## Overview and grading\n## Math and concept preparation\n## Review resources and websites\n## Expectations for calculations\n## Expectations for explanations","[{\"question\":\"When is the AP Physics 1 summer assignment due?\",\"answer\":\"It is due the first day of class in September.\"},{\"question\":\"What math skills are emphasized for AP Physics 1?\",\"answer\":\"Strong algebra and trigonometry skills are required, since many physics problems apply principles from math courses.\"},{\"question\":\"What does “show your work” mean in this assignment?\",\"answer\":\"Students must present equations, logical derivations, substitutions with numbers and units, and the final answer with units.
