Features
Read full description

Introductory Physics Tutor helps students build connected understanding across a complete Physics I and Physics II learning path. Rather than treating physics as a collection of formulas to memorize, the app moves through a Learn → Practice → Master cycle. Focused teaching, worked reasoning, visual questions, immediate coaching, interactive models, adaptive review, and exam preparation work together to help students understand what a problem is asking and why a solution works. WHAT’S INCLUDED • 19 physics topics spanning mechanics, energy, momentum, rotation, fluids, oscillations, waves, thermodynamics, electricity, magnetism, optics, quantum physics, and nuclear physics • 67 focused skills organized into a connected course roadmap • 624 practice and mastery questions • 273 visual-reasoning questions • Immediate choice-specific coaching and retry-until-correct learning • 17 interactive Explore labs • Adaptive review that identifies weak skills and directs you to what to study next • Physics I, Physics II, and cumulative exam review • 60-question timed full exam simulation • Progress and mastery tracking across the course LEARN WITH CONTEXT Each focused skill begins with concise teaching and worked reasoning before practice. The goal is not simply to recognize the right equation, but to connect diagrams, physical models, units, signs, and assumptions to the underlying physics. PRACTICE VISUALLY Many questions use force diagrams, motion relationships, energy models, circuits, fields, waves, thermodynamic processes, and other visual representations. Feedback explains why an answer works and helps rule out common misconceptions. EXPLORE THE PHYSICS Interactive labs let you change variables, make predictions, observe what happens, and connect the result back to the governing model. Explore vectors, projectile motion, free-body diagrams, energy, collisions, torque, fluids, oscillations, waves, thermal physics, electric fields, capacitance, circuits, magnetism, optics, photons, and nuclear decay. REVIEW WHAT MATTERS Adaptive Review turns missed ideas into focused relearning and fresh checks. Exam Review provides guided Physics I, Physics II, and cumulative practice, while the full simulation offers an independent timed test experience. TRY THE REAL TUTOR FREE Topic 1, Measurement & Vectors, is fully available so you can experience the complete Learn → Practice → Master approach, including visual reasoning, progress tracking, and the Vector Components Lab. A single Full Access purchase unlocks the remaining course, labs, adaptive review, and exam-preparation features. No subscription is required. Designed for iPhone and iPad, with layouts built to take advantage of both devices.
