I forget how they taught physics back in HS tbh...
But it's pretty apparent now that physics without calculus is like playing a Mario game with a keyboard. What's the point of teaching physics without calculus and how do they do it? >_> --- Shenmue II = best game of all time Shenmue = 2nd best game of all time ... Copied to Clipboard!

They just give you the equations that are derived with calculus and pretend like they appear out of thin air.

It's actually more difficult since you're expectes to memorize instead of understandMemorizing is far easier then understanding wtf --- Switch FC: SW-3917-4425-6106 PSN: PiKappaPhi769 ... Copied to Clipboard!

Like I was good at Physics even in high school (without calculus) but once I got to university and they introduced calculus and showed how everything was derived everything just instantly made more sense. --- ...

ap physics is taught with calculus and actually requires you be at least taking it concurrently

DependsYou also end up memorizing the derivation at some point, so it's just more memorization. --- "I play with myself" - Darklit_Minuet, 2018 ... Copied to Clipboard!

Most of the basics dont require any calculus. You dont need it to understand conservation of energy and momentum, the momentum principle, or even most of the basic equations of electricity and magnetism
Even the basics of relativity dont require calculus to work the problems. It isn't until you start deriving other equations that you need derivatives and integrals, or series expansions --- A hunter is a hunter...even in a dream ... Copied to Clipboard!

High school physics is pretty simplified. It rarely accounts for all the forces at play and often pretends everything within the problem takes place within a vacuum.

You dont need it to understand conservation of energy and momentum, the momentum principle, or even most of the basic equations of electricity and magnetism you absolutely need it to understand these concepts because they are laws that were determined by derivation from other, known laws, using calculus. you don't need it to use the equations for conservation of energy/momentum to solve simple problems, but you do need it if you begin with acceleration as a function of time and need to calculate potential energy, or other calculations that start from one side of the derivation and require you to move to the other (AKA, problems that actually test your understanding of physics) the same is true for understanding electric potential over a surface or charge across a line. yes you can use ohm's law without calculus. that is not electromagnetism.
