Description
Physics 12 offers students an opportunity to learn advanced concepts of physics while developing their scientific problem solving skills in our fully equipped laboratory. This class provides authentic learning experiences as our students are not only given the opportunity to engage in hands-on experimental activities, but they are also given guidance on how to effectively communicate their findings to their peers and instructor.
The following concepts will be covered in the course:
- vector kinematics and dynamics
- work, energy, power and momentum
- static equilibrium
- circular motion and gravitation
- electrostatics and electromagnetism
- special relativity
