Welcome to Physics!
The Science of Why Stuff Does Stuff
Introductory Physics (Algebra-Based)
This course provides students with a foundational understanding of the principles of physics using algebra-level mathematics. Topics include motion, forces, energy, momentum, waves, electricity, and basic concepts in modern physics. Emphasis is placed on developing problem-solving skills, conducting hands-on investigations, and applying scientific reasoning to real-world situations. This course is ideal for students preparing for college-level science or seeking a deeper understanding of the physical world around them. Laboratory work and project-based learning are integral components of the curriculum.
