<p>Are there any additional formulas that I should memorize for Physics B? </p>
<p>I’m referring to those other than on formula sheet. Anything that would make problems easier. </p>
<p>In addition, is there any advantage to knowing calculus for the B test?</p>
<p>bump10char would like to know too</p>
<p>Knowing calculus can help conceptually in AP Physics B. You will never see a problem that will ever require you to use it, unless you consider taking a really basic Riemann sum to be applying calculus…</p>
<p>The formula sheet for physics B is pretty good. One extra formula that I used constantly last year is a shortcut formula to be used for elastic collisions involving two bodies: vo1 + v1 = vo2 + v2</p>
<p>I don’t feel like deriving this on a message board, but I’m sure you can find a derivation online or do it yourself using po = p and Ko = K.</p>
<p>for MC we don’t get any formulas correct?</p>
<p>Yeah no formulas, no calculator.</p>

<p>Idk if this is on the sheet or not but Torricelli’s equation…</p>
<p>v = sqroot(2gh) is very helpful.</p>
<p>Torricelli’s is on the sheet but its in a different form (in terms of velocity initial and velocity final and the terms are all squared so there isn’t a square root). Also, it’s generalized to acceleration and distance, not just g and h.

<p>I’m studying waves in my Princeton Review book, and I was wondering if I should memorize these formulas about doppler effect:</p>
<p>f(d) = (v ± v(d))/(v -+ v(s)) f(s)</p>
<p>and</p>
<p>λ(d) = (1 ± u/c) λ(s)</p>
<p>the (d) and (s) are subscripts.</p>
<p>I would focus on the concept of Doppler Effect rather than the equations.</p>
