About College Physics for AP® Courses

College Physics for AP ® Courses is designed to engage students in their exploration of physics and help them apply these concepts to the Advanced Placement ® test. Because physics is integral to modern technology and other sciences, the book also includes content that goes beyond the scope of the AP ® course to further student understanding. The AP ® Connection in each chapter directs students to the material they should focus on for the AP ® exam, and what content — although interesting — is not necessarily part of the AP ® curriculum. This book is Learning List-approved for AP ® Physics courses.
