<p>I looked at the AP Physics B topic outline, and I just wanted to check. Does the AP test ask questions about specific heat or volume and linear expansion?</p>
<p>For example problems where you have to find the latent heat of fusion of a material or determining the specific heat of a substance?</p>
<p>My class spent like 2 months on heat and I'm afraid we wasted a lot of time.</p>
<p>… 2 months on heat? We spent like 2 weeks on heat. </p>
<p>Uhh we didn’t do calorimetry / specific heat or latent heat. </p>
<p>It seems like you wasted a lot of time.</p>
<p>Yeahhh it’s not a huge part of the test. I remember a linear expansion problem but not specific heat (could be just forgetting, though). At any rate two months on heat is excessive.</p>
<p>There is almost always an FRQ on thermo, but involving P-V diagrams, first law, etc. as opposed to specific heats, latent heat …</p>
