Course Description
Students opting to take the honors version of physics will be required
to be more proficient at the quantitative aspects, more thorough in
their understanding of the qualitative aspects, and more independent
during laboratory investigations. Theories and practical applications
are covered in such a way which meets the requirements of a strong
college preparatory program. Through demonstrations, discussions,
experiments, group activities, and extensive problem solving the
students will study kinematics, dynamics, energy, momentum, waves,
sound, light, fluids, electricity, and magnetism. Any student entering
engineering or medical/health related schools in college are highly
recommended to take chemistry and physics.
Prerequisites: H. Chemistry; "B" average in science. (Option could be
developed to take A.P. Exam); a strong math background is encouraged.
