ÁùºÏ±¦¿â Physics Prize

ÁùºÏ±¦¿â Physics Prize

Since 1970, the Department of Physics and Astronomy at ÁùºÏ±¦¿â has hosted the ÁùºÏ±¦¿â Physics Prize Examination. The Physics Prize is offered to encourage interest in physics, astronomy, and physical sciences, and to give recognition to outstanding high-school students. The ÁùºÏ±¦¿â Physics Prize Test will cover topics in physics that would normally be studied by students during the first semester of their high-school physics course: kinematics, dynamics (Newton’s laws), circular motion, universal law of gravitation, harmonic motion (simple pendulum and mass-spring systems), impulse, linear momentum, conservation of momentum and collisions, work, energy and conservation of energy, torque, rotational kinematics, dynamics and energy, angular momentum conservation, mechanical waves, and sound.

A variety of awards are available, however the first place award is an unrestricted four-year, full-tuition scholarship to ÁùºÏ±¦¿â!
