Science

Eleventh grade science is most commonly Physics, or an AP science course such as AP Biology, AP Chemistry or AP Physics. Physics covers kinematics, Newton's laws, work, energy and power, momentum and collisions, circular motion and gravitation.

It continues into waves and sound, optics, electrostatics, circuits, magnetism, and often an introduction to modern physics. The course is algebra-based in most districts and calculus-based in AP Physics C, and success depends heavily on translating a written scenario into the right equation.
