What is an AP Physics C: Electricity and Magnetism Course

AP Physics C: Electricity and Magnetism is a calculus-based college-level physics online course designed for students interested in pursuing a career in physical science or engineering. Electrostatics, conductors, capacitors, and dielectrics, electric circuits, magnetic fields, and electromagnetic are all covered in this course. The course makes extensive use of introductory differential and integral calculus.

 

Prerequisites

Calculus should have been taken or be taken concurrently by the students.

 

Course Content

Unit 1: Electrostatics

You’ll start your investigation of the electric force by looking at electric charges.

Unit 2: Conductors, Capacitors, Dielectrics

You’ll learn about how electric charge may go through an item and the elements that influence how it does so.

Unit 3: Electric Circuits

You’ll use your electrical component knowledge to examine the nature of electric circuits and learn about current, resistance, and power.

Unit 4: Magnetic Fields

You’ll start your study of magnetism by understanding how magnetic fields are created, how they behave, and how they interact with electricity.

Unit 5: Electromagnetism

You’ll build on your knowledge of charges, currents, and electric and magnetic fields to investigate electromagnetic forces and their applications.

 

Exam Pattern

Section I: Multiple Choice

This portion will consist of 35 questions and will last 45 minutes, accounting for 50 percent of the overall score.

Individual questions as well as sets of questions that pertain to the same graphic or data presentation are included in the multiple-choice section. You may be asked questions that assess your ability to:

  • Visual representations of physical circumstances should be interpreted and described.
  • Create a scientific topic or hypothesis that can be tested, and then construct an experiment to test it.
  • Examine the data in a graph.
  • Determine the link between physical characteristics.
  • Use mathematical relationships to solve physics issues.
  • Make scientific assertions and back them up with proof.

Section 2: Free Response

This portion will consist of 3 questions and will last 45 minutes, accounting for 50 percent of the overall score. Credit for answers in the free-response part is based on the quality of the solutions and responses displayed, so be careful to show your work.

Some questions need you to defend your response or offer a scientific explanation that contains a claim, evidence, and reasoning. This analysis might take the shape of text, mathematics, computations, diagrams, or graphs, among other things.

An experimental or lab-based component will be included in one of the three questions in this section. You may be asked questions that assess your ability to:

  • Visual representations of physical circumstances should be interpreted and described.
  • Create a scientific topic or hypothesis that can be tested, and then construct an experiment to test it.
  • To depict data and physical conditions, use graphs and diagrams.
  • Examine the data in a graph.
  • Determine the link between physical characteristics.
  • Use mathematical relationships to solve physics issues.
  • Provide proof to back up scientific assertions.
