AP Physics

<p>Hey I'm taking a Physics I summer college course right now. It's calculus based, but I'm not sure which ap physics test it best corresponds, too. I think it's either Physics B or Physics C: Mechanics. Any answers?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>physics I is prob more like ap physics b…might even be easier than that</p>

<p>really? i was told that physics b doesn’t contain any calculus</p>

<p>well “Physics I” covers the basics…really…idk…read teh course description!</p>

<p>Physics C is calculus based</p>

<p>If its a college course, it’s definitely NOT the equivalent of Honors Physics, you know that.
Physics C actually does not cover too much deeper stuff than Physics B CONCEPTUALLY. The main difference is in the mathematics and calculations. In fact, Physics C only covers Mechanics and Electricity/Magnetism. Physics B goes into Thermodynamics, Optics/Wave Motion, Fluids, etc as well as Mechanics and E/M. Your class is calculus based, so it will probably be good for Physics C. However, you may also be studying Waves, Thermo, and Fluids with a calculus base. If so, the class gives you the conceptual basis for Physics B (and thus, C) and the mathematics for C (and thus, B). You have a great deal.</p>

<p>that’s physics c</p>
