AP Physics 1 Question Bank: 8,001 Questions

How the bank is organised

The AP Physics 1 bank covers 8 units of the course: Kinematics (1,093), Force and Translational Dynamics (1,697), Work, Energy, and Power (1,144), Linear Momentum (964), Torque and Rotational Dynamics (1,172), Energy and Momentum of Rotating Systems (556), Oscillations (582), Fluids (793).

Choose a unit, a topic, a difficulty and a set size, timed or untimed. Every question is multiple choice, with the answer and a worked explanation after you hand the set in.

With a free account you can try a fixed sample of 20 AP Physics 1 questions, the same for everyone, with their answers and explanations.

Every topic and skill, with counts

Counted from the live question database. Only questions available to practise are included.

Questions

Can I try the bank before buying?

Yes. With a free account you can practise a fixed sample of 20 questions, the same set for everyone, and read their answers and explanations. A plan opens the whole AP Physics 1 bank for its access period.

How long does question-bank access last?

Question-bank access lasts 120 days (240 days for an AP subject's bank) from the day it opens. SAT, GRE, GMAT, PTE and the AP banks open after payment. ACT, IELTS, TOEFL and TR-YOS plans open when every section they cover has questions, straight away if they do now. It is a fixed window, not a subscription: it does not renew and you are never charged again automatically.

Can I get a refund?

Practice tests, question banks and AI Tutor time are digital content. You can ask for a refund of a digital product you have not used within 14 days of the payment date. A product counts as used once any practice test in the pack has been started, any question in a paid section of the question bank has been opened, or any second of AI Tutor time has been used; a used product is not refunded. If you are charged twice by mistake, contact us and the duplicate charge is refunded.
