AP Physics 1 — Force and Translational Dynamics

Unit 2 · 18% of the AP exam

Force and Translational Dynamics is the second of 8 units in the College Board's current AP Physics 1Course & Exam Description, and it accounts for roughly 18% of the AP exam. It builds on Kinematics and sets up Work, Energy, and Power.

Our Force and Translational Dynamics set has 8 practice questions, each with a written explanation, a one-line key takeaway, and a rationale for every wrong choice — so you learn why the right answer is right and why each distractor is tempting. You can work them as a timed set or read the worked solutions straight through.
