Academic Physics Parent


Program Description:         The academic program of study is designed to prepare students for college level work.

Course Description:         In this course, we will explore the underlying, governing physical principles of our universe through the use of hypothesizing, observation, data gathering, and mathematical analysis.
        Key topics to be discovered and discussed are as follows: data gathering and graphical analysis, mechanics, 1- and 2-dimensional kinematics, including Newton's Laws of Motion, statics and dynamics, conservation of momentum, work and energy conservation, properties of solids and liquids, thermodynamics, wave motion, and sound. If time permits, we will also do a cursory overview of electricity.
