The content for the course is based on six Big Ideas found in the AP Physics 1 and 2 Curriculum Framework: Big Idea 1 – Objects and systems have properties such as mass and charge. Systems may have internal structure. Big Idea 2 – Fields existing in space can be used to explain interactions. Big Idea 3 – The interactions of an object with other objects can be described by forces. Big Idea 4 – Interactions between systems can result in changes in those systems. Big Idea 5 – Changes that occur as a result of interactions are constrained by conservation laws. Big Idea 6 – Waves can transfer energy and momentum from one location to another without the permanent transfer of mass and serve as a mathematical model for the description of other phenomena.
