COURSE SYLLABUS

Overview of AP Physics 1

®

All the students in grade 10 may register for an AP Physics 1 cour. In

®

about 45 weeks we meet twice a week for each 40 minutes and follow Sears and

Zemansky’s University Physics with Modern Physics and Cracking the AP

®

Physics 1 Exam (2015 Edition; Princeton Review). We discusd the principle

of some phenomena to form the ability of theoretical analysis. And in this

cour, we emphasize function thought, vector thought and experiment design.

Experiments

Most of our experiments and the experiments for high school

students make little difference. We always make some experiments

to help us understanding the theory deeply.

There list some experiments we have finished:

1. Length and time (Vernier caliper, micrometer caliper,

Stopwatch)

2. Densities of given solids and liquids (Balance and glass
