Physics is an upper-level elective designed for students with good math skills. We explore force and motion theoretically, experimentally, and mathematically. The course is challenging, but we move at the pace that the students prescribe, getting an in-depth experience with the concepts involved in the field of mechanics. Our year will begin with a discussion of what Physics is in general, but will quickly move to practical applications of velocity and acceleration. We conduct many investigative labs, some student designed, that explore the physics of vehicles, sports, space flight, and free-fall. The year ends with out annual rooftop egg drop contest.
