Physics 12 ​is a continuation and revisit of Physics 11.  Topics that are revisited will involve more complex problem-solving and mathematics.

Topics include understanding the motion of objects in two dimensions, the effects of forces on motion, momentum and energy. ​Additional units could include electrostatics, electromagnetism, force equilibrium​, circular motion and gravitation.  Credit in Physics 11 is required before enrolling in Physics 12.  A strong background in Pre-Calculus 11 is highly recommended.  A scientific calculator with two-line display is required equipment; graphing calculators are permitted but not required.

A Science 12 is not required for graduation. Most engineering postsecondary pathways require Physics 12. Students pursuing STEM pathways in postsecondary will likely need TWO approved academic Science 12 courses.
