1.00 Credits
1 hour credit This laboratory introduces the variety of techniques used by astronomers to learn information about the planets, stars, and galaxies. This course counts as a lab science when taken concurrently or after NASC-0107. Prerequisite: None. Good algebra skills strongly recommended
-
3.00 Credits
3 hours credit An introduction to the important concepts of physics such as motion of objects, forces, momentum, energy, waves, electricity, optics and nuclear science. This course has a conceptual rather than mathematical emphasis. Designed for liberal arts majors, the course may serve as a background course for science majors. Prerequisite: College Algebra, MATH-0105 is recommended.
-
1.00 Credits
1 hour credit A laboratory related to Introductory Physics, NASC-0130. The course counts as a lab science when preceded or accompanied by NASC-0130. Prerequisite: College Algebra, MATH-0105 is recommended.
-
4.00 Credits
4 hours credit This course provides students with a comprehensive study of the principles of meteorology while simultaneously providing classroom and laboratory applications focused on current weather situations. It provides real experiences demonstrating the value of computers and electronic access to time-sensitive data and information. The structure and composition of the atmosphere, the general circulation pattern over the Northern Hemisphere and how it arises, winds in relation to pressure patterns, and weather maps and their analyses are among the topics covered. Prerequisite: College Algebra, MATH-0105 is recommended.
-
5.00 Credits
5 hours credit This course provides students with a comprehensive study of the principles of geology while simultaneously providing classroom and laboratory applications. The course is a study of the structural and dynamic features of the Earth. Rock-forming minerals, rocks and their decay. A short history of the Earth are included. Prerequisite: College Algebra, MATH-0105 is recommended.
-
5.00 Credits
5 hours credit This course covers a study of the fundamental principles and mathematical analysis in mechanics, fluids, heat, and wave motion. These basic concepts and mathematical analysis are presented in five hours of lecture, recitation, demonstrations, and two hours of laboratory per week. [The student must be concurrently enrolled in NASC-1231 - General Physics I Lab.] This is a general course and is not suggested for engineering students. General Physics I is offered in the Fall semester only. Prerequisites: College Algebra, MATH-0105 is required; Trigonometry, MATH-0112 is recommended
-
5.00 Credits
5 hours credit This is the second course of two sequential courses commonly required for the study of all the areas of physics. This course covers a study of electricity, magnetism, light, and concepts of modern physics. Mathematical analysis and understanding of fundamental concepts is emphasized. [The student must be concurrently enrolled in NASC-1232 - General Physics II Lab.] This is a general course and is not suggested for engineering students. General Physics II is offered in the Spring semester only. Prerequisite: General Physics I, NASC-0231 or consent of the instructor.
-
5.00 Credits
5 hours credit This course is a study of Newtonian mechanics, energy, work and momentum relations, simple harmonic motion, fluids and thermodynamics. Mathematical analysis using calculus and a greater depth of understanding of fundamental concepts is emphasized. [The student must be concurrently enrolled in NASC-1245-Engineering Physics I Lab.] The course is designed primarily for those students who are majoring in pre-engineering and is offered only in the Fall semesters. Prerequisites: Completion of Calculus and Analytic Geometry I, MATH-0122 and concurrent enrollment in or completion of MATH-0123, Calculus II.
-
5.00 Credits
5 hours credit The second semester of a two semester sequential course of study in basic physics. The course is designed primarily for those students who are majoring in pre-engineering. Electricity, magnetism, light, and concepts of modern physics are studied in this course. [The student must be concurrently enrolled in NASC-1246-Engineering Physics II Lab.] This course will be offered during Spring semester only. Prerequisites: Engineering Physics I, NASC-0245, and Calculus and Analytic Geometry II, MATH-0123, or consent of the instructor.
-
3.00 Credits
3 hours credit Material covered in this course includes forces and force systems as applied to engineering problems, equilibrium, moment of force, center of gravity, and moment of inertia. Emphasis is on problem solving using vector notation. Prerequisites: Engineering Physics I, NASC-0245 and Calculus and Analytic Geometry II, MATH-0123.
