Physics 12
Teacher(s)
Kathleen Pugh
Prerequisite
70% in Physics 11, 70% in Pre-Calculus 11 or 80% or higher in Foundations of Math 11. Students who have not completed PreCalculus 12 are strongly urged to take PreCalculus 12 concurrently with Physics 12.
Description
The course is divided into 8 units. The course starts from where Physics 11 left off with the study of motion. You will move on from there to explore dynamics, circular motion, energy, electricity and magnetism. The course requires a strong foundation in mathematics. The course emphasizes problem-solving and exploration. The course is well-supported with instructional videos, practice questions and solutions.
