AP Physics 2: Algebra-Based is a second-year physics course designed for high school students in grade 12 who have completed AP Physics 1. The course covers the topics and concepts typically included in the second semester of an algebra-based, introductory college-level physics course. Topics include fluid statics & fluid dynamics, thermal physics & thermodynamics, electricity & magnetism (including RC circuits and electromagnetic induction), light & optics, and modern (quantum, atomic & nuclear). The course focuses on high-level understanding of concepts and experimental design, and prepares students for the AP Physics 2 exam in May.
