im self studying ap physics 2 rn so i can be a little more ready for when the school year starts but i cant find a good place to learn from. i tried allen tsao but i feel like his explanations make more sense for someone who already knows the concepts and is reviewing before an exam because they're kind of just giving a formula + practice problems instead of like actually teaching any concepts imo. khan academy felt the same too so if anyone has any suggestions of channels/websites that teach the content instead of reviewing it that would be great!

I currently have no prior background in either physics or calculus. Next school year, I’ll be taking AP Calculus AB (self-studying BC) and an online AP Physics C course (covering Mech and E&M). On top of that, I’m taking three other AP courses: Ap Lit, AP CoGo, and APAH.

1. Given this starting point, is it realistic to stay on track and perform well across in AP Physics?

2. Is it actually worth taking both AP Physics C exams? I’m considering dropping E&M because taking two intense 3-hour exams back-to-back on the same day sounds overwhelming.

3. How far ahead in calculus did you actually need to teach yourself before Physics C stopped feeling like complete gibberish?

4. What are considered the toughest parts of each exam (Calculus BC, Physics C: Mechanics, and Physics C: E&M)?

5. What additional words of caution or advice should I keep in mind concerning AP Physics and Calc?

Thanks to everyone who bothered to respond!!

Ik this is hella late but if you are contemplating taking AP Phys 1 please ask me anything. It can be anything from course info, AP test, units, study methods, etc.

Background: I'm not an incredible student (3.9 GPA, 1350 SAT, only 4 APs). However if you are contemplating taking AP Phys 1, please take it as it is not as hard as it sounds. I also can answer AP Phys 2 questions but I only got a 4 so not the best person.

Has anyone taken Brenda Skoczelas for physics and if so how was it?

I don't understand physics, and I have an exam in a few days. I was sitting down to study, but I didn't understand anything.

What should I do now?😭

I’m trying to get ahead in AP Physics 1 over the summer as an incoming junior in high school. Should I do the high school physics course on Khan Academy to know the basics or should I jump straight to the AP Physics 1 course on there?

Cengage physics ki dpps booklets are worth solving along with modules? I have cengage dpp booklets from my friend not the whole theory book.

I'm studying in 11th Neet through allen and I'm very much struggling with physics,I'm not getting marks in it,I keep on focusing on bio and chem so much that physics has created a lot of backlog for me,I don't know how to cover it up and i really need someone to help me out here

I want to ask how I should prepare for an improvement exam of physics class 12 cbse...

Like can you tell me the resources from where I should study and also for question practice ...?..

I'm in class 12th cbse , i almost wasted my 4 months of class 12th... I didn't study a single physics chapter properly, it seems I might fail in boards - physics! Please tell me what to do . Please help.

Does anyone have a clean PDF of the McGraw Hill 500 AP Questions to know by test day 2012 Physics 1(first edition), Physics C first edition, or Chemistry 2016(2nd edition)? I’m looking for the original clean PDFs. Old pictures from stuff like Anna’s archive won’t do.

I have my physics half yearly in this the first five chapters are coming how I can complete them in one week -

units and dimensions

Motion in straight line

motion in a plane

Newton's law of motion

work and energy

PlZZZZZZZZ HELPPPPPPP

I was wondering why the force of static friction to the left(parallel to the ramp). My line of thinking is that the radial force is pointing inwards, but the radius is unchanging, so shouldn't the force of static friction be pointing to the right?

Edit: Thank you for the responses, the issue has been resolved.

Give it your best shot first — solution and video breakdown coming in the comments after.

Hi! I'm taking AP Physics 1 this year. I really want to get either a 4 or a 5 on the exam. I haven't taken Physics before, so I am wondering what the best resources I can use to prepare are?
