AP Physics Warm-Up: Kinematics
By David B.
This 4-question warm-up for AP Physics includes one horizontal kinematics problem, one vertical kinematics problem, and two motion graphs questions to review fundamental concepts.
Customize for your classroom
Teacher Guide & Tips
- Use as a quick review at the start of an AP Physics lesson.
- Discussion question: How do the concepts of displacement and velocity differ in horizontal versus vertical motion?
- Scaffold for struggling students: Provide a reference sheet with kinematic equations.
- Extension for advanced students: Ask students to create their own kinematics problems based on real-world scenarios.
- Estimated time: 15-20 minutes.
