well wtf will i be learning then :(

>>1673924
the most basic bullshit you can think of.

don't even take physics unless it is a calculus physics course.

>>1673924

Newton's Laws of Derp

>>1673927
will i at least learn Newton's laws and particle theory? what about electromagnetism

>>1673933
No.

Classical Mechanics. Unless you take AP Physics: C

>>1673933
you will be taught the basic ideas.

you know those shitty art classes you take for a easy A, well its the same idea, they just tell you some BS that isn't very important.

Sure you can learn newtons laws, but you don't even know what acceleration really is, or how to find the center of mass on objects that are not symmetrical.

physics without calculus is for people who don't give a shit and just want to fill a science credit.

>>1673936
Classical mechanics? Explain, remember high schooler here.

>>1673941
f=ma, thats the gist of it all.

>>1673924
Mass m is suspended from the ceiling by two massless ropes. One rope meets the mass at 30' from the vertical, one rope meets at 45'. What is the tension in each rope herp derp herppp

>>1673939
well crap :(

I was never too good at math so I'm stuck in Alebra II as a Senior. I wish I had studied more in my math classes.

>>1673941
Newton's Laws of Motion
Kinematics (1-3 Dimensions)

Shit like... How far a ball travels when you throw it.

>>1673947
Oh wow

>>1673947
>Algebra II
>Senior

lolwut

>>1673951
alright, I'll let steven hawking tell me the rest, lol jk.

I guess I'll just wikipedia most of my physics related questions thenc

>>1673961
no, just wait university.

>>1673960
Yes yes laugh it up. I have an LD in math confirmed by my psychologist but you can laugh anyways. I'm trying harder.

>>1673961
... That won't help.

>>1673961

you should A) learn basic calc. it will help out.
B) you will learn newtonian mechanics. thats pre relativity,
C) electromagnetism and its accompanying rules
D) waves
E) BASIC atomic theory
F) touch on what relativity is. i sujjest a briefer history of time.

>>1673906
>>1673968
i was kidding

I just finished AP Physics, and it's pretty cool.
The subjects you'll learn will go like this.

trig/math foundations
kinematics (basic motion velocity, acceleration)
newtons laws of motion (inertia and force and stuff)
Impulse/Specific impulse
circular motion (centripetal force)
Kinetic and Potential energy
simple harmonic motion (pendulum and springs)
Electricity (circuits and voltage and current)
Magnetism (induction and other stuff)
Thermodynamics
Fluid dynamics
Light/Optics
VERY VERY BASIC INTRO INTO QUANTUM STUFF.

when i say basic, i mean like, you'll learn plancks constant and thats about it.

Well that's how my teacher did it.

test

>>1673995
i forgot torque and waves, but their sort of related to those more general topics.

>>1673995
>AP Physics: B

>>1674001

yeah man, he just said he hasn't taken calculus.

>>1673906
This picture reminds me of E8 for some reason.
