The F=ma Exam is a physics competition focused primarily on mechanics and problem solving. It is used as an important part of the selection pathway for the U.S. Physics Team and the USA Physics Olympiad program.
The program is designed primarily for high-school students who have a strong interest in physics and want to prepare for the F=ma Exam, physics competitions, or advanced physics study.
The preparation covers Mathematics for Physics, Kinematics, Newtonian Mechanics, Work & Energy, Momentum, and Rotation, along with additional preparation in gravitation, oscillations, advanced mechanics, and problem-solving strategies.
No. Calculus is not required as a core prerequisite for F=ma preparation. However, basic calculus concepts can be helpful for understanding and solving some advanced physics problems.
Yes. The program progresses from fundamental mechanics to more challenging topics, including circular motion, constrained motion, rotational dynamics, angular momentum, gravitation, oscillations, and advanced mechanics.
Yes. The program can include F=ma-style practice tests, topic-based tests, timed practice, and mock examinations to help students develop accuracy, speed, and exam confidence.
Yes. Previous F=ma problems can be incorporated into the preparation to help students become familiar with the exam's problem-solving style, difficulty, and question patterns.
Yes. F=ma preparation provides a strong foundation in mechanics and analytical problem-solving, which are valuable for progressing toward USAPhO-level physics preparation. However, USAPhO preparation also requires broader physics topics beyond mechanics.
