PSII is a continuation of PSI, focusing more on physics topics such as motion (dynamics), waves, sound, heat, light, electricity, electronics, and others as time permits. Understanding of basis physics content as the foundation of biology and chemistry will be the primary goal of the course. Applications of the physical sciences to areas of earth science, astronomy, and life science are included. Quantitative data management and analysis (including mathematical, graphical and modeling approaches) will be utilized. Mathematics used will involve simple pre-algebra and algebra skills.
