***AP Physics 1 Thread 2014-2015***

I hope there’s a big curve on this test

…Ap2 is apparently harder than this…

Plus who else had form o

@kgsoccer08 For the acceleration one I just put the gravity one going straight down. If you pointed down the incline, that would be ‘breaking up the vectors’ which they dont want to see on a free body diagram.

@MileSwimmerDude Aww another stupid mistake. Oh well hopefully I made up for it on the MC portion

That moment when u post in a thread with millions ppl on and no one cares bout ur post.

my daughter took Form E and she felt it was hard both mc and frq did anyone else feel that?

@kgsoccer08 Ya :confused: I am not trying to put you down sorry if it seems that way.

@MileSwimmerDude no not at all. I’m actually more confident about it now :slight_smile:

@apphysicsishard I can remember which form I had

@kgsoccer08 cool :slight_smile: Lets hope we get 5’s!

@MileSwimmerDude yeah hopefully!!

Praying for a 70% curve )’;

Difference in electric potential energy= voltage, right?

So glad it is finally over!!! I love physics, but this exam was just… HARD. My burden has just become lighter by a million pounds.

@AlphaDragon Yes.

I can’t talk about a specific problem but how is it possible that a spring can compress a distance of D from equilibrium but expand 3D from equilibrium?

@fruitman1 i totally thought that too! but it is actually possible because of the way the frictional force interacts with the motion

@magic125 but doesn’t friction always oppose motion so shouldn’t it be even less than D ? Could you explain this?

The object was compressed with energy 1/2 kx² n then released from Sprint. If it was attached to spring then it would oscillates up to 1 D (or less cuz of friction) but it was not in oscillation … So ye. That’s my guess.
