Hey guys, just found a post stating that the following sections for physics were removed:
Physics:

  • Momentum
  • Solids (density, elastic properties, etc.)
  • Periodic motion (springs and pendulums) and wave characteristics (exception: spring potential energy still tested)
  • Circular motion
  • Alternating current
Sorry, if this is an old question but, first of all is this true?
Second, in regards to circular motion, how will that apply to how much you have to know about torque? Is torque still tested? Thanks so much!
 
Periodic motion is still listed in the content for the mcat. Specifically Amplitude, frequency, phase, Transverse and longitudinal waves: wavelength and propagation speed

Density and specific gravity are on here but specifically tested for fluids.

Aside from those small things you are right! Look at the full content in this pdf: https://aamc-orange.global.ssl.fast...d-e5ff-44bc-bcf5-94d4b715b494/mcat2015-cp.pdf
