Calculus was initially developed as a tool to solve problems in many areas, particularly in Physics. While adhering to both curriculums, the students will apply their newly found calculus knowledge to physics problems. Upon completion of the course, the students will receive two credits, one in Math and one in Science. In this applied physics course students study functioning of mechanical, fluid, electrical and thermal systems with emphasis on laboratory work and mathematical analysis. The course provides a firm foundation for Physics 012 or AP Physics 010.
Selection is based on teacher recommendation and interview with the instructor.
Students who have not received credit for Math I may elect mathematics credit in lieu of science credit.
