  2. Scientific theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_theory

    A scientific theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world, based on a body of facts that have been repeatedly confirmed through observation and experiment. Such fact-supported theories are not "guesses" but reliable accounts of the real world. The theory of biological evolution is more than "just a theory".

  3. AP Physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AP_Physics

    AP courses were first administered by the College Board in the 1955–1956 school year, with AP Physics being one of the ten courses. As college and university physics courses use different levels of mathematics, in 1969, the single AP Physics course was split into AP Physics B and AP Physics C. AP Physics B served as an algebra-based course for life science and medical students, whereas AP ...

  4. AP Physics 1 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AP_Physics_1

    Advanced Placement ( AP) Physics 1 is a year-long introductory physics course administered by the College Board as part of its Advanced Placement program. It is intended to proxy a one-semester algebra-based university course in mechanics. Along with AP Physics 2, the first AP Physics 1 exam was administered in 2015.

  5. Scientific racism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_racism

    Scientific racism, sometimes termed biological racism, is the pseudoscientific belief that the human species is divided into biologically distinct taxa called "races", [1] [2] [3] and that empirical evidence exists to support or justify racial discrimination, racial inferiority, or racial superiority.

  6. Advanced Placement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Placement

    Advanced Placement ( AP) [ 4] is a program in the United States and Canada created by the College Board. AP offers undergraduate university-level curricula and examinations to high school students. Colleges and universities in the US and elsewhere may grant placement and course credit to students who obtain qualifying scores on the examinations.

  7. Theoretical physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theoretical_physics

    Theoretical physics is a branch of physics that employs mathematical models and abstractions of physical objects and systems to rationalize, explain, and predict natural phenomena. This is in contrast to experimental physics, which uses experimental tools to probe these phenomena. The advancement of science generally depends on the interplay ...

  8. AP Physics C: Electricity and Magnetism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AP_Physics_C:_Electricity...

    t. e. Advanced Placement ( AP) Physics C: Electricity and Magnetism (also known as AP Physics C: E&M or AP E&M) is an introductory physics course administered by the College Board as part of its Advanced Placement program. It is intended to serve as a proxy for a second-semester calculus -based university course in electricity and magnetism.

  9. Positivism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Positivism

    The belief that science is nature and nature is science; and out of this duality, all theories and postulates are created, interpreted, evolve, and are applied. Stephen Hawking. Stephen Hawking was a recent high-profile advocate of positivism in the physical sciences. In The Universe in a Nutshell (p.
