AP® Physics 2 - Part 2: Electricity and Magnetism

Rice University via edX

Overview

Preparing for the AP Physics 2 exam requires a deep understanding of many different topics in physics as well as an understanding of the AP exam and the types of questions it asks. This course is Part 2 of our AP Physics 2 series designed to prepare you for the AP exam.

In Part 2, you will be learning about electricity and magnetism. You will cover topics like electrostatics, electric fields and forces, circuits, magnetism, electromagnetic induction, how motors and transformers work and much more.

As you work through this course, you will find lecture videos taught by expert AP physics teachers, practice multiple choice questions and free response questions that are similar to what you will encounter on the AP exam and tutorial videos that show you step-by-step how to solve problems. By the end of the course, you will be prepared to take on the AP exam!
