Linear Motion
A group of three fundamental equations that describe motion under a constant acceleration.
What are kinematic equations?
The theorem that relates the product of force and time to the product of mass and velocity.
What is the impulse-momentum theorem?
The quantity representing the time it takes for an occilating system to complete one full cycle.
What is period?

Mr.Bowles's favorite saying for when something is on an inclined plane.
What is "break it into components"?
Newton's second law states that...(answer with mathematical and in-words explanation)
What is Fnet=ma, a net force is directly proportional to the product of an object's mass and acceleration?
The three types of systems and how they exchange mass and/or energy.
Open system - exchange both mass and energy
Closed system - exchange only energy
Isolated system - no exchange of mass or energy (the universe)
What are circular motion and rotational motion?
The number of multiple choice questions are in the AP Physics 1 exam and the amount of time you have to complete it.
40 MCQ and 80 minutes
The 16th-century Spanish alter ego of Mr.Bowles.
What is ConquistaBowles?
A satellite is launched into orbit from Earth's surface using rocket motors. Draw a free-body diagram of the satellite with force vectors of relative sizes to one another at the moment the satellite reaches the thermosphere (Hint: The thermosphere is VERY far from the surface of the Earth, and the rocket is still moving upwards)
Gravitational force: Fg downward
Applied force: Fa upwards
A 100N force is applied to a cart at a 3o angle with the vertical direction, the cart moves 400cm as a result. What is the work done on the cart?
W=2.0934Nm
The rotational "equivalents" of force and mass.
What are torque and rotational inertia?
The materials allowed to have during the AP exam.
Writing utensil (Pencil or Black Pen), graphing calculator, 30cm ruler, scratch paper, reference sheets.

A box is at rest on top of an inclined plane, of height h=3m and angle 30° from the horizontal, that is on the surface of the Earth. Given that the mass of the sphere is 15g, find the coefficient of static friction between the sphere and the plane.
us=tan(30)=0.577
A car of mass m=3kg moves at a initial speed of 30 m/s. After 5 seconds, the speed of the car is 23 m/s. Calculate the energy dissipated in the system.
Ediss=73.5 J
What is the frequency of a pendulum of length L=2m if the pundulum is hung near the surface of a planet of twice the radius of the Earth and 5 times the mass of the Earth?
f=0.394 s-1
The four different types of FRQ on the AP exam.
Experimental Design, Qualitative/Quantitative Translation, Mathematical Routines, and Translation Between Representations
Mr.Bowles's first subject he wanted to teach.
What is history?
A book weighs 28N on the surface of the Earth. What is the weight of the book on another planet whose radius is twice that of Earth and mass thrice that of Earth?
21N
Favg=3.75kN
A hoop and a thin spherical shell made of the same material and of the same radii are released from the same height atop a hill. Each object rolls to the bottom without slipping. How would the translational and rotational kinetic energy of the hoop compare to that of the thin spherical shell?
Ishell=2/3*M*R2 Ihoop=M*R2
The translational kinetic energy of the hoop is less than that of the thin spherical shell, but the rotational kinetic energy of the hoop is greater than that of the thin spherical shell.
The angle mode your calculator should be on for AP Physics.
