We'll go over more advanced (but very fun) aspects in mechanics that might not be traditionally taught in your last physics class you took. If you're interested in rocket motion, systems of springs, gyroscopes, and differences in time with spaceships traveling near the speed of light, then you might enjoy what we talk about! To get the most out of the sessions, you should have a firm understand of calculus of at least the AP Calculus BC level, and a physics background of at least AP Physics 1. Textbooks we'll use: - Morin, D. (2023). Introduction to classical mechanics: With problems and solutions. Cambridge University Press. - Kleppner, D., & Kolenkow, R. J. (2014). An introduction to mechanics. Cambridge University Press.

We'll have a fun Kahoot planned with physics topics from various areas at the AP Physics 1 level/some challenges. All you need is a pencil and a piece of paper!

This College Admissions Workshop on The Essay is a virtual 4-week workshop designed to provide you with structure and support to write your college essays this summer. In this workshop, you will: - Learn the purpose and the must-dos of the personal statement - Learn and practice strategies for picking a prompt, brainstorming, drafting, and revising your writing - Understand the role of supplemental questions and strategies for organizing your questions and responses - Work alongside other students who are also preparing to apply to college.

We'll discuss our favorite methods of teaching/learning physics in the subworld, and effective methods of learning/teaching for the different high school structures. (AP, IB, A-Level, etc.)

We'll go over past FRQ questions for the AP Physics C Mechanics Exam.

We'll go over past FRQ questions for the AP Physics C Electricity and Magnetism Exam.

Come to get some tips on tutoring in the Physics subworld, and find out more about opportunities here in addition to live tutoring.

We'll do some review of the first half of different parts of the AP physics curriculum by going through past FRQs. Hope to see you there!

We'll cover some best practices and any questions you might have!

We'll work through the Mechanics and E&M course together and cover a few other topics too!

We'll work through the AP Physics C Mechanics curriculum together, hopefully finishing by the end of April (in time for the exam).

Come and ask any remaining physics questions you might have after the holiday break! We'll also do a quick review of a few topics based on interest.

We often learn to solve problems involving dynamics using F=ma (Newton's laws) but there's a different way to approach things with energy! It turns out to work even with really complicated problems. We'll go through the use of this method, look at its origins, and also some special aspects that allow for generalization. A knowledge of calculus (derivatives and integrals) would be helpful.

We'll go through the curriculum for both courses together! We'll make use of Khan Academy and past AP Exams for practice.

We'll give additional practice and time to ask any questions you might have about AP Physics classes you're taking! Format (flexible): 15 Min Questions 45 Min Topic Practice Times are to be determined based on learner interest and availability, but we'll always give at least 3 days notice before a new session.

We'll go through a calculus-based introduction to E&M. Planned topics: -Properties of Electric Charge -Coulomb's Law -Electric Fields -Gauss's Law -Potential Energy of an Electric Field -Applications Plus lots of practice problems throughout!

While the AP Curriculum gives an introduction to many concepts important in the study of physics, certain aspects of selected topics are sometimes presented briefly, or not covered in a traditional class. These sessions will aim to provide additional insight into various topics starting in mechanics, with more sessions added later. Emphasis will be placed on problem solving, which could assist in future physics courses at the college level, or in planned high school classes in this subject for the next school year. Necessary math will be presented as needed, so please don't let a perceived level of difficulty prevent your participation!

We'll review for the New York State Regents Exam in Physics by going through practice tests together. This also can serve as a general review of physics principles.
