Labs are an Essential Component of AP Physics

In addition to generating graphs and identifying what type of graph it is - inverse, exponential, linear, inverse square, and writing an equation, you will need to be able to generate an equation from data.

​

There are two lab activities that you must complete on paper and bring to class on Day 1.

​

Candy Container Lab

​

You will need:

a) purpose

b) data in column format with units

c) graph using the Physics Aviary Graphing Program, with a title, labeled axes and units.

d) equation for the line, with x and y identified

e) screenshot of the completed physics aviary success screen.  This will be submitted in class, the first week of school.
