About

We're going to go over the main concepts in AP Physics 2 to prepare anyone taking the class next year. We'll start with Fluids and work our way through Thermodynamics, Electricity + Magnetism, and Optics, and end with Modern Physics / Relativity. I'll provide plenty of opportunities to answer questions and also provide you guys with tons of resources to make sure you're ready for the class next year. 
Before taking this series, I would review basic kinematics and forces from AP Physics 1. It isn't required, but it helps make a clearer understanding of what goes on in Physics 2. Khan Academy teaches this really well, so I would start there. This isn't required, but it is recommended. 
I will assign homework at the end of each session, but the homework isn't required and should be used supplementarily.

Tutor Qualifications

Here are some of my qualifications:

- Took AP Physics 1 + 2 last year --> Achieved a 5 on both + high As

- Took F=MA --> 19/25 Score (Qualifying me for USAPHO)

- Took USAPHO --> Top 400 in the Country for Physics

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

Please don't miss more than 2 sessions in a row. If you already know a subject I'm teaching, then email me so I know you won't be coming. The content moves really fast, and I also want to give space for other learners.

Session 2

Physics

Thu Jul 20, 2023, 1:00 AM

We'll be going over the first unit of AP Physics 2, Fluids. Before joining, if you want to be really prepared, then you can read over the Khan Academy Fluids docs. It isn't required,  but again, Khan Academy has some really great resources!

Start of Thermodynamics

The basics of thermodynamics. Because this is such a big chapter, I'm probably going to spend the next 2-3 sessions covering it.

Session 7

Physics

Fri Aug 11, 2023, 1:00 AM

More Thermodynamics.

After this session, I will see if we should have another session or a review! This session relies heavily on information learned from the previous session, so be sure to join that one!
