How the AP Physics 1 worksheets work

The problems are sorted from easy to hard, and the last five on each sheet are written to stretch the student the way a free-response question does. The sheet on “friction, slopes, pulleys and springs” mixes friction, slopes, pulleys and springs, the one on “angular motion, torque and balance” brings in torque and balance, and “density, pressure, buoyancy and moving fluids” finishes with fluids. Types vary from short calculations to graph reading, comparisons and explanations, so that a student practises translating between words, graphs and equations. Each answer shows the method from the diagram to the equation to the result with its unit. The order matches the AP Physics 1 lessons.

Table of contents

Part 1 holds the 14 worksheets below, in this order. Part 2 holds the worked answers of every worksheet, in the same order.

  1. Straight-line motion with graphs and equations
  2. Projectiles and relative motion in a plane
  3. Free-body diagrams and net force problems
  4. Friction, slopes, pulleys and springs
  5. Centripetal acceleration and gravity in orbit
  6. Work, kinetic energy and the net-work theorem
  7. Energy conservation, bar charts and power
  8. Impulse, momentum and force–time graphs
  9. Elastic and inelastic collisions with centre of mass
  10. Angular motion, torque and balance
  11. Rotational inertia and Newton's second law
  12. Rotational energy, rolling and angular momentum
  13. Springs, pendulums and simple harmonic motion
  14. Density, pressure, buoyancy and moving fluids

Frequently asked questions

Who are the AP Physics 1 worksheets for?

They suit US high school students preparing for the AP Physics 1 exam, and anyone starting physics with algebra but no calculus. They work next to the lessons or next to any school textbook.

Where are the answers?

Part 2 gathers all the answers, after the 14 worksheets, so a student does not see an answer by accident. Each one shows the method, and the table of contents lists the answers of every chapter, from “straight-line motion with graphs and equations” to “density, pressure, buoyancy and moving fluids”.

How many problems are on a worksheet?

Twenty, numbered Problem 1 to Problem 20 and sorted from easy to hard, each one marked easy, medium or hard. The sheet on “impulse, momentum and force–time graphs” has the same layout as all the others.

Can I print the AP Physics 1 worksheets?

Yes. Print the chapters you need, as many copies as you need for your own class or family. Payment is a single PayPal purchase with an instant download.
