Mock AP Exams
 
First one is a large file, and you've seen many of its questions before. The test questions don't start until many pages in. So don't just press PRINT.
 
Practice Exam 2 is new

Assignment

The full set of resistor circuit solving notes
 
Parts 1, 2, and 3 are very quick. Part 4 is where the effort is spent. A hard copy of Part 4 was given out in class.
 
Skill goal by April 16 (as told in class): If I show you a family three circuit diagram and tell you one of the three unique currents, you then state what the voltage is across any of the resistors. This would be in a circuit with given ohm values of each of the three resistances.
 
Family 3: means two resistances in parallel with each other and that combo in series with a third.

Due Wed. 3/28 upon arrival: Exp. 5 (attached and handed out in class)
 
You already have the hard copy of the assignment from class.
 
The Circuit to Load is optional. If you choose to try it, you can't just open it. Your computer won't have an application for that. You have to download it to your computer, and then LOAD it using the LOAD command from within the PhET environment. If you can't get it to load, you can just make the circuit on your own. If you don't know what I'm referring to, read the assignment sheet.
