Advanced Physics

Instructor:

Mr. Modhi Alshehri

Description:

KAMSC Advanced Physics will cover some of the topics in the required 11th grade introductory physics course, but at a deeper and more thorough mathematical level involving calculus and vector calculus appropriately as the course progresses. The course is designed to cover much of the AP Physics C syllabus. Additional topics include rotational motion, angular momentum, fluid dynamics, statistical mechanics, AC circuits, physical optics, and solid state physics. Relativity and quantum mechanics will also be treated in detail. Course activities will include quantitative research projects, and opportunities to employ physics principals to design, construct, predict, and maximize the performance of devices for competitions. Course projects will introduce students to calculator based and/or computer based data acquisition and analysis techniques.
