3.00 Credits
The great ideas of physics, together with their philosophical and social impact. Scientific topics include cosmology, relativity, quantum mechanics. Philosophical and social topics include methods and values of science, problems related to energy sources, and implications of modern weapons. Non-mathematical. Designed for non-science majors. Along with PHYS 1021L, can be used to satisfy a 4-year physical science requirement for a B.A. degree. Students who have received credit in PHYS 2013 and 2033, or 2053 and 2073 cannot also receive degree credit in this course.
-
4.00 Credits
For elementary education majors. Physical science concepts based on state frameworks are explored in a mixed lecture/lab environment. The inquiry-based lab activities can be transferable for school classroom use. Topics covered include: scientific inquiry, motion and forces, conservation of energy, heat, light, electricity and simple circuits, and magnetism. Corequisite: Lab component.
-
4.00 Credits
The relation between the principles of physics and the practice of building and operating structures. Topics include: The behavior of structures under various loads, the statics and dynamics of fluids, thermal storage, thermal expansion, the greenhouse effect, heat transfer, refrigeration, the energy problem, efficiency in the operation of buildings. One underlying theme is that the self-sufficiency of a building is an important part of architecture. Lecture 3 hours, laboratory 2 hours per week. Corequisite: Lab component.
-
4.00 Credits
Acoustics, electricity and magnetism, light, and environmental physics. Topics include resonance, acoustical isolation, interference, reverberation time, electrical circuitry with emphasis on power and efficiency, electrical storage, light sources, reflection, refraction, absorption, transmission, color, astronomy (to give perspective to the use of sunlight in architecture), heat, noise, and radioactivity pollution. Lecture 3 hours, laboratory 2 hours per week. Corequisite: Lab component. Prerequisite: PHYS 1044.
-
1.00 Credits
Laboratory 2 hours per week. Corequisite: PHYS 2010D and PHYS 2013.
-
1.00 Credits
Laboratory 2 hours per week. Corequisite: Drill component and PHYS 2033.
-
4.00 Credits
A continuation of PHYS 2054 and PHYS 2074. Topics include waves, physical optics, thermodynamics, kinetic theory, and an introduction to quantum mechanics. Lecture 3 hours per week and practicum 2 hours per week (included in lab component). Preor Corequisite: MATH 2574. Corequisite: Lab component. Prerequisite: PHYS 2074.
-
3.00 Credits
Individualized, self-paced laboratory instruction in electronics requiring no previous electronics experience. Topics include basic DC and AC electronics fundamentals. Pre- or Corequisite: MATH 1203 or MATH 1285. May be repeated for up to 2 hours of degree credit.
-
3.00 Credits
Individual experimental or theoretical research problems for advanced undergraduates. May be repeated for up to 3 hours of degree credit.
-
3.00 Credits
Newton's laws of motion applied to particles, systems of particles, and rigid bodies. Introduction to Lagrange's equations and expansions. Pre- or Corequisite: MATH 3404.
