Physics 12 Part 1 (PHYS 0983)
This course begins with the study of kinematics in one and two dimensions. The equations of motion are utilized, stressing the vector nature of the physical quantities. Vector addition and manipulation are covered using trigonometric component methods. The same vector techniques are then applied to an analysis of dynamics in one and two dimensions, two-dimensional equilibrium, momentum in two dimensions and uniform circular motion. The final topics covered are energy conservation, waves and optics.
Both Physics 0983 and Physics 0993 are required for completion of ABE Provincial level Physics.
Physics 0983 and Physics 0993 can be taken at the same time or in any order.
