This is an honors level course that challenges students with capstone analysis, evaluation, and creativity. Students are required to complete honors capstone assignments in each semester of the course, involving research, creation, and/or the extensive use of multimedia.

This course covers a broad knowledge base including Newtonian laws of mechanics, gravitation, vectors, basic trigonometry, forces, motion, acceleration, energy, heat, and waves. Students will investigate the laws of nature and utilize a variety of equations to predict the effect of different forces. They will calculate forces, paths of projectiles, electrical circuits, energy transfer, wave interactions, and more. Students will also have the opportunity to utilize laboratory simulations to reinforce the major concepts of this course. This course contains comparative virtual labs.


This course is correlated to NY state standards, including topics covered in the NY state Regents exam.
