Why are there both algebra and calculus physics courses?

I explain why there are algebra based and calculus based physics courses on the same material.

I'm really loving those calculus based physics videos :) do you have any recommended textbook for self studying?

[dusk_finesse]

I like the fact that there’s a slope because the thing is calculus doesn’t just deal with graphs but students always say that it always uses graphs witch yes they do but you have too be given a formula

[brianmyers]

How can you solve for the calculus without a given function? Isn't taking the slope at a very specific point the same as calculus?

I’m taking calculus based physics 1 in college now and am actually very bored with it because the curriculum seems to have reduced about 90% of it to algebra already.

Yes, when we’re first learning a new concept like momentum, we start with the calculus derivation of middle middle....and then arrive at P=mv. And the remainder of problems and questions are solved using the algebraic representation.

Mind you, in college, I’ve already taken calculus 1, calculus 2, and calculus 3 so I was anticipating some awesome, rigorous differentials and definite integrals but to no avail. 😒

The answer that I'm getting is, algebra physics is for uncompromised people, like high school students and graduates from non physics/math areas. You are given formulas to work without knowing where they came from

I am interested in how you did your lecture videos, what software and equipment did you use to make this youtube video?

[martinmarraccino]

So the only difference comes with kinematics?

[armandoberardo]

Hello, I like your explanation. It is very clear. I would like to know what software do you use to make that presentation?. Please advise

[benjaminapelman]

Will I manage college physics 1 (calc based) with pre calc as my highest math? I’ve been teaching myself derivatives and I think I could manage it. But if someone thinks that’s too much it would be useful fead back!

[menozmenoz]

where can i find calc based physics courses on kahn academy?

[promiseofwar]

Which will best prepare you for the MCAT?

Dumb reason. I was actually expecting something better lol I'm so dumb also
