Advanced Science: Physics II
PHYSICS II: The first semester is a study of classical mechanics and the further study of wave theory, optics, and sound coupled with an introduction into modern physics. There will be a strong emphasis on the algebraic manipulation of variables. Problem definition and multi-step problem solving will be stressed. The second semester will include a review of wave theory, optics, and basic electrical circuits.
