AP® Physics 2: Algebra-based is the second course in a two-year
sequence equivalent to the first and second semesters of a typical
introductory, algebra-based, college physics course. AP® Physics 2:
Algebra-based will provide an in-depth coverage of concepts using
an inquiry-based approach. This course will help students develop
critical thinking and reasoning skills necessary to the study of all
science and many other disciplines. Topics covered in AP® Physics
