Topics include: mechanics (kinematics, Newton's 3 laws, work and energy, conservation of linear momentum, angular momentum, rotational dynamics, gravitation and Kepler's law, and harmonic motion), electricity and magnetism (charge; electric field and potential; resistance, capacitance, and inductance; RCL circuits; laws of Gauss, Ampere and Faraday; magnetic properties; and Maxwell's equations), heat and fluids (laws of thermodynamics, ideal gases and thermal properties, Kinetic theory of gases, and fluid mechanics) and optics. Policies on the acceptance of AP credit vary among academic programs and from institution to institution, so AP credit toward the GECC or major requirements is not guaranteed. A score of 3 or higher on the AP Phsyics C: Electricity & Magnetism exam may be considered as equivalent to successful completion of postsecondary courses approved for IAI GECC P2 900. Feb 2016
