Critical Thinking Questions in Physics Part 1 Critical Thinking Questions in Physics Part 2 The emphasis on conceptual understanding, problem solving techniques, and labs in the AP Physics courses necessitate the use of a variety of audio-visual media and demonstrations for clear and in-depth understanding of the topics being discussed. Posing challenging physics questions will stimulate critical thinking skills in students. The following activities will help students better understand the concepts in the courses and should have a positive effect on their performance on the exam. These questions cover critical thinking topics in mechanics and electricity and magnetism, and test student understanding of the concepts on a number of different topics. They are focused on the following topics: Part 1 Units & Dimensions: 1-3 Distance and Displacement: 4-6 Kinematics and Projectile Motion: 7-13 Circular Motion: 14 Weight & Weightlessness: 15-18 Angular Momentum: 19 Electricity and Magnetism: 20-21 Part 2 Thermal Physics: 22-24 Fluid Mechanics: 25-32 Waves & Optics: 33-35 Modern Physics: 36 See also...
