![]() ![]() In choosing this assignment, you can explore such questions as: What calculations were necessary to make this toy do what it was intended to do? (How do you know?) What adjustments can be made to the toy to make it perform “better”/”worse”? (How do you know?) INDIVIDUAL Any of the above options. Analyze the physics of a children’s toy – conceptual and mathematical. A simple demonstration of x = vt will not suffice. ![]() ![]() You MUST incorporate and explain the concepts and mathematical skills from the AP curriculum or beyond (rotational mechanics, E&M, calculus, optics, etc). You and your classmates have a number of options, any of which need to have approval from me BEFORE you begin: GROUP Create a novel apparatus to perform some function (simple or sophisticated) after carrying out careful planning and calculations that prove that your device will complete the task for which you built it. You will present this evidence on the day of the senior final exam, via some sort of multimedia production/demonstration (like the Coke-bottle YouTube video), a lasting record of which (video, paper, etc.) you will submit to me on the day of the presentation. Work with scientific explanations and theories.Ĭonnect and relate knowledge across various scales, concepts, and representations in and across domains.AP Physics: End of Semester Project Your task is to produce clear and convincing evidence of the knowledge you gained during your time in Advanced Placement Physics. Perform data analysis and evaluation of evidence. Plan and implement data-collection strategies in relation to a particular scientific question. Use representations and models to communicate scientific phenomena and solve scientific problems.Įngage in scientific questioning to extend thinking or to guide investigations within the context of the AP course. The AP Physics 2 framework included in the course and exam description outlines distinct skills, called science practices, that students should practice throughout the year-skills that will help them learn to think and act like physicists. Unit 7: Quantum, Atomic, and Nuclear Physics Unit 5: Magnetism and Electromagnetic Induction Unit 3: Electric Force, Field, and Potential ![]() As always, you have the flexibility to organize the course content as you like. The AP Physics 2 framework is organized into seven commonly taught units of study that provide one possible sequence for the course. The framework also encourages instruction that prepares students to make connections across domains through a broader way of thinking about the physical world. The framework specifies what students must know, be able to do, and understand, with a focus on seven big ideas that encompass core principles, theories, and processes of the discipline. Based on the Understanding by Design® (Wiggins and McTighe) model, this course framework provides a clear and detailed description of the course requirements necessary for student success. ![]()
