-
3.00 Credits
Designed to furnish senior philosophy majors with extensive training, under tutorial supervision, in analysis of a philosophical problem or system or philosopher, with a view to producing and presenting a senior paper for oral defense. Prerequisites: advanced standing as a philosophy major and permission of the Department. Cr 3.
-
3.00 Credits
An elementary approach to the study of mechanics, heat, sound, electricity, magnetism, light, and modern physics, intended for the student who desires a one-semester introduction to the subject with emphasis on concepts as opposed to problem solving. Students desiring laboratory work should also register for PHY 102K. Students planning to major in any of the natural sciences are not directed to this course but rather to a more advanced introductory course. Prerequisite: high school algebra. Cr 3.
-
3.00 Credits
Laboratory experiments and additional material designed to supplement the topics considered in PHY 101K. Prerequisite: concurrent registration in PHY 101K or permission of the instructor. Cr 1.
-
3.00 Credits
The first of a two-semester non-calculus sequence in introductory physics, intended particularly for life-science majors. Topics to be covered include mechanics, waves, sound, and thermal physics. Lectures, demonstrations, and problem solving will help the student develop an understanding of physical phenomena. Mathematical treatment is at the level of algebra and trigonometry. This course is not recommended for students planning to major in the physical sciences or engineering. It should be taken concurrently with PHY114K, Introductory Physics Laboratory I. Prerequisite: successful completion of the University's minimum proficiency requirement in mathematics. Three hours of lecture and one hour of recitation per week. Cr 4.
-
3.00 Credits
Acontinuation of PHY 111K, intended particularly for life-science majors. Topics to be covered include electricity, magnetism, optics, and modern physics. Lectures, demonstrations, and problem solving will help the student develop an understanding of physical phenomena. Mathematical treatment is at the level of algebra and trigonometry. This course is not recommended for students planning to major in the physical sciences or engineering. It should be taken concurrently with PHY 116, Introductory Physics Laboratory II. Prerequisite: PHY 111K or equivalent. Three hours of lecture and one hour of recitation per week. Cr 4.
-
3.00 Credits
Experiments designed to illustrate the concepts studied in PHY 111K and PHY 121K. Prerequisite: concurrent registration in PHY111K or 121K. Two hours per week. Cr 1.
-
3.00 Credits
Experiments designed to illustrate the concepts studied in PHY 112 and PHY 123. Prerequisite: concurrent registration in PHY 112 or PHY 123. Two hours per week. Cr 1.
-
3.00 Credits
The first of a two-semester sequence introducing the fundamental concepts of physics, using calculus. Topics to be covered include mechanics, waves, sound, and thermal physics. This course is recommended for students who plan further study in physical sciences, mathematics, or engineering. It should be taken with PHY 114K, Introductory Physics Laboratory I. Prerequisite: prior or concurrent registration in MAT 152D or equivalent experience. Three hours of lecture and one and one-half hours of recitation per week. Cr 4.
-
3.00 Credits
A continuation of PHY 121K, introducing the fundamental concepts of physics, using calculus. Topics to be covered include electricity, magnetism, and light. This course is recommended for students who plan further study in physical sciences, mathematics, or engineering. It should be taken concurrently with PHY 116, Introductory Physics Laboratory II. Prerequisites: PHY 121K or equivalent and one semester of calculus. Three hours of lecture and one and one-half hours of recitation per week. Cr 4.
-
3.00 Credits
The first of a two-semester sequence covering the principal topics which show the departure of physics from its classical roots. Topics will include relativity and atomic structure. Prerequisite: PHY 123 or PHY112, and MAT 152D. Cr 3.
