This book is dedicated to all the AP Physics 2 teachers who toil alone, because they are the only one of their kind at their school. They have no one else to work with, share with, or talk to about their subject. Yet, they love the incredible beauty and wonder of physics and how it all fits together. I hope this book helps you and your students.

How to use this book and words of wisdom for STUDENTS:

The AP Physics 2 exam is not for the faint of heart. There are deep conceptual problems, challenging symbolic mathematical questions, laboratory design scenarios, and thought-provoking questions that require you to justify your answers in scientific detail. These are all skills that can be mastered with practice. You want to get good at AP Physics 2 and pass the AP exam? Just like anything else, it takes preparation and persistence. This book is designed to give the extra training necessary to excel on the exam. These are the same questions that I use with my own students to help them defeat the AP Physics 2 exam.

First, use this book to review each content section as you cover it in your AP Physics 2 class. This will help to deepen your knowledge of each subject area with added practice AND improve your class grade at the same time. Second, use this book as a review of the course content as you prepare for the exam. Just remember that understanding AP Physics takes time and effort. The universe was not created in a day and it certainly cannot be understood in a one-night cram session. You simply cannot learn physics overnight, so dont start studying May 1st. Give your brain some time to digest how it all fits together.

Two very important points:

Dont look at the answers until you have truly attempted to answer the question. I know that you come from the Google Generation where all the answers are at your fingertips, but brain research tells us that looking at the answer doesnt help you learn nearly as well as struggling to answer the question.
