AP Physics I

✨ 8-Week Curriculum✨

Week
#1

✏️ Topic 1: Kinematics

Students study motion, speed, velocity, and acceleration in one and two dimensions. Understand how to read and interpret motion graphs.

Week
#2

✏️ Topic 2: Newton’s Laws

Students explore force, mass, and acceleration using Newton's three laws. Includes free-body diagrams and frictional forces.

Week
#3

✏️ Topic 3: Circular Motion

Students learn about centripetal acceleration, orbital motion, and Newton’s Law of Universal Gravitation in curved paths.

Week
#4

✏️ Topic 4: Work & Energy

Students study kinetic and potential energy, work-energy theorem, and conservation of mechanical energy in systems.

Week
#5

✏️ Topic 5: Momentum

Students explore impulse and momentum, collisions (elastic and inelastic), and momentum conservation principles in 1D and 2D.

Week
#6

✏️ Topic 6: Simple Harmonic Motion

Students investigate oscillations, including springs and pendulums. Understand concepts of frequency, period, and amplitude.

Week
#7

✏️ Topic 7: Torque & Rotation

Students examine rotational kinematics, moment of inertia, torque, and angular momentum. Apply Newton’s laws to rotational systems.

Week
#8

✏️ Topic 8: Mechanical Waves

Students study wave properties, sound, and wave interference. Includes standing waves, wave speed, and resonance.
