An exam divides the six free-response questions into calculator use and no calculator use items. The non-calculator items are conceptual in nature and test whether pupils understand the calculus concepts. Scholars explain their answers...

What do the questions look like? Six free-response questions provide pupils with knowledge of how calculus topics appear on the AP® Calculus exam. The questions involve calculator and non-calculator problems by providing mathematical and...

There is just a single real-world problem. Released free-response items from the 2007 AP® Calculus BC Form B contains only one real-world question. The question involves rate of change of wind chill scenario. The mathematical problems...

Whether determining orbitals of space craft or designing experiments with conductive dough, many young scientists discover physics is phun and attempt the AP exam to get college credit. Use the free response questions from the 2018...

Where do the questions come from? Individuals examine released items and see the topics included. Teachers use the materials to see the distribution between strictly BC content and that which is shared with AB. The 2002 Calculus BC is...

Take another look at the exam. A set of questions is a different form for the 2004 AP® Calculus BC free-response question section. The questions are evenly split into calculator and non-calculator sections. Pupils use their knowledge of...

The AP® exam is not just about the calculations. By reviewing the free-response questions from 2008, teachers and pupils see that several items require justifications and explanations to gain full credit. The chief reader even points out...

Seventh graders investigate velocity and speed. For this Vernier Probe lesson, 7th graders will use probes to calculate motion, speed, and velocity of an object. They will create a graph of their collected data.

High schoolers develop an understanding of velocity and to distinguish it from speed. To determine the difference between a scalar and a vector quantity. To explore how acceleration is derived from velocity and time.

Students create a motion diagram for a distance and motion project. In this time and motion lesson, students take turns walking around the track and take pictures of their motion. Students measure the distances and determine...

My acceleration is downward at 9.8 meters per second squared. That means I'm falling for this physics of motion worksheet. Once motion has been covered in class, give a worksheet that offers multiple choice and short answer...

In this motion worksheet, students determine the speed, velocity, or acceleration of various objects under certain conditions. This worksheet has 7 word problems.

Students explore average speed, and graph distances and time.  In this speed and velocity instructional activity students complete a lab then calculate distances, acceleration and velocity and graph the data.

In this unit III: 3 worksheet, students describe motion in words and graph drawings. Students calculate the instantaneous velocity and average velocity. Students also graph the displacement of the object in the word problems.

In this linear motion worksheet, students answer 12 questions including finding acceleration of moving objects, calculating distance objects travel and determining the time of travel. Students interpret graphs of position vs. time,...

Sixth graders read about and study motion. They conduct a lab in which they calculate speed using track records at their school. They graph the results and then invite a guest speaker (an officer from the local police department) who...

Pupils apply their understanding of motion to 11 practice problems as part of a series on dimensional kinematics. They view a dot diagram animation and read descriptions to identify which match. As a bonus, the interactive offers...

In this motion worksheet, students will read 8 statements about displacement and velocity and determine if the statement is true or false. Then students will fill in the blank for 8 statements on motion. Finally, students will compare...

Make motion maps, draw graphical representations, and determine displacement. These are the activities included in this physics assignment. This is a great review of velocity, position, acceleration, and displacement concepts.

Students calculate angular displacement, velocity and acceleration of gyrocopters. In this physics lesson, students compare data taken from 3 different gyrocopters. They explain how differences in construction material affect rates of...

In this Newton's Laws worksheet, students solve 4 problems using Newton's Laws. Students explain their work and calculations using Newton's Laws and equations.

Students distinguish between kinetic and potential energy. They recognize that energy can change from one form to other forms. They identify and describe several forms of energy.

In this physics review learning exercise, students review vocabulary words associated with speed, acceleration, Newton's Laws and simple machines, work and energy, magnetism, electricity, and harmonic motion and light. This learning...

This physics PowerPoint defines the concepts of motion and force. The slideshow consists of an explanation on how motion and force work and give students the chance to demonstrate motion and force through an experiment. The directions...
