Hey everyone... since the AP Physics C Exam is coming up next monday I was looking for old exams online (multiple choice exams) to study from. I've been searching for days and haven't come up with anything. Does anyone know where I can find old multiple choice sections of the AP Physics C Exam.

You won't find them. The exams are copyrighted material and Collegeboard is typically very strict about unauthorized duplication.

If you want practice tests, check out one of the Princeton Review books or Barron's books from the library or borrow one from a friend or buy one from the store. Maybe your school's counseling department will have a copy that they will allow you to borrow (or at least photocopy).

Good luck with the test! I took it last year. I didn't think it was all that bad.

Thread 'Does acceleration affect impact energy vs constant velocity?'

I do not have a good working knowledge of physics yet. I tried to piece this together but after researching this, I couldn’t figure out the correct laws of physics to combine to develop a formula to answer this question. Ex. 1 - A moving object impacts a static object at a constant velocity. Ex. 2 - A moving object impacts a static object at the same velocity but is accelerating at the moment of impact. Assuming the mass of the objects is the same and the velocity at the moment of impact...
