We're working on projectile motion right now, and the test is this friday. How is this pace for the AP exam? Is my teacher going too slow? We've only done unit 1 so far.

Hey, I am a student currently taking ap physics 1. Long story short, I bought the barrons prep book and don't like the way it is covering the topics and don't undderstand it. Last year, I used princeton for my aps and had good results and I need to get my hands on the princeton review 2026-27 ap physics 1 prep book.

Anyone who has the link, free feel to comment or dm.

I am taking physics 11 university preperation physics class, and I am struggling with understanding on how to approach and solve projectile motion problems. Now fortunautly, this is the last thing we are learning in kinematics. From what I know about this, the acceleration is always a = -9.8m/s2, and I have to create 2 equations for horizontal and vertical sides. I do always draw a diagram to help me visualize this, but I still am struggling to how to approach it.

In these problems, do I have to at least make 2 equations to get the answer I need?
