Weekly Assignments
We are now in the new material portion of the course. Each week, there will be two assignments posted. All of these will be sent through Google Classroom. I will continue to post resources to this site.
Week of April 13
MYP Physics 1AC
This week's theme is Calculating Energy. There are two documents: Intro to Kinetic Energy and Intro to Potential Energy .
DP Physics 1
This week's theme is Capacitor Structure. There are a couple of background documents: Capacitor Structure and Capacitor Charging and Discharging. For some practice: Capacitor Practice Problems, Solutions, IB Practice (only on the Classroom). The Capstone Problems are the only problems that need to be turned in.
DP Physics 2
We are going to be reviewing the course over the final weeks. To start, take the paper 1 that was sent via the classroom. Due to copyright issues, I will only post official IB materials inside the classroom.
