Advanced Placement Physics 2 Notes

These notes are based on College Physics by Raymond Serway and Jerry S. Faughn.

The order of these notes is based on Walker Physics


In no way are these notes a substitute for your own personal notes. They are an overview of the class. They don't have the specifics, and they are not aware of any things added to the lecture.
