Talk:AP Physics C: Mechanics

(Re?)Merge with Physics B

For the other AP tests that have multiple variants (Computer Science, Calculus) there is one page, for Physics there are 2. And one of them is completely empty. I don't see any real need for the extra page. Aluvus 14:14, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

It should not be merged. AP Physics C is not a multiple variant in the same manner as Computer Sciences A and AB or Calculii (I think that's the plural) AB and BC. Computer Science AB just tacks some extra topics onto the A curriculum (they happen to all be more math-oriented). Similarly, Calculus BC covers all of Calculus AB and just a little more (Chapters 1 - 10 of your standard calculus textbook, as compared to 1-7 for AB). Physics B and C, however, are radically different. Physics B is a comprhensive survey course covering the fundamentals of physics from the college-freshman perspective. It employs no mathematics beyond blunt algebra and trigonometry. Physics C, on the other hand, is no suvey exam. In fact, it is not even one exam. There are two AP Physics C exams, one in mechanics and one in electricity and magnetism. As the C would suggest, both Physics C exams require the use of calculus. They are also far more limited in there scope (they are the only college board exams to take up one hour, not counting AP Studio Art). Thus, the two articles should not be merged. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.108.140.116 (talk • contribs) 01:00, June 10, 2006 (UTC)

External links modified

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on AP Physics C: Mechanics. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

• Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20100601132803/http://www.collegeboard.com:80/prod_downloads/ap/students/physics/ap-cd-physics-0708.pdf to http://www.collegeboard.com/prod_downloads/ap/students/physics/ap-cd-physics-0708.pdf

When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true or failed to let others know (documentation at {{Sourcecheck}}).

history

Did there used to be just one Physics C test, with both mechanics and E&M? If so, is this history worth adding to the page? (I think so.) Otherwise, it seems that there is now no more B, but it should still have an article for historical reasons, and the new 1 and 2 tests should have one or two articles.
