Course description

This course counts as a lab science for WA graduation requirements. Students seeking enrollment in a 4 year universtiy immediately after high school need to confirm with their counselor that this course will meet university entrance requirements. This course provides a comprehensive survey of all key areas; physical systems, measurement, kinematics, dynamics, momentum, energy, thermodynamics, waves, electricity and magnetism, and introduces students to modern physics topics such as quantum theory and the atomic nucleus. The course gives students a solid basis to move on to more advanced courses later in their academic careers. The program consists of online instruction, virtual laboratories, and related assessments, plus an associated problem-solving book.
