Exploring Creation with Physics

Table of Contents


This college-prep physics course is designed for the student who has some experience with trigonometry. Exploring Creation With Physics provides a detailed introduction to the methods and concepts of general physics. Heavily emphasizing vector analysis, this text is ideal preparation for a university-level physics course. It provides the student with a strong background in units, measurement, one-dimensional and two-dimensional motion, Newton’s laws and their application, gravity, work and energy, momentum, periodic motion, waves, optics, electrostatics, electrodynamics, electrical circuits, and magnetism.

Prerequisites: In order to be able to understand this text, the student needs to be comfortable with the sin, cos, and tangent functions along with their inverses. These concepts are covered in Saxon’s Algebra 2 course. Most other math series actually have a 1-semester course called “trigonometry.” However, the trigonometry needed is this course is sometimes covered in a math series' geometry course. We recommend that the student take chemistry before physics. Physics is the toughest science, so the student should have plenty of science experience before trying to tackle it.

Here are some comments we have received from the students and parents who have used this course:
