2.00 Credits
Usually offered fall semester and 1st summer session. First of a two-course sequence (PHYS 2010-2020) treating the fundamental laws and principles of the various fields of physics: mechanics and heat. Prerequisite: Grade of "C" or better in MATH 1030. ( 3/1)
-
2.00 Credits
Usually offered spring semester and 2nd summer session. Second of a two-course sequence (PHYS 2010-2020) treating waves, sound, electricity and magnetism, optics and modern physics. Prerequisite: PHYS 2010. ( 3/1)
-
3.00 Credits
Usually offered fall and spring semesters. Second of a threecourse sequence (PHYS 1121-2111-2121) for majors in physics and engineering treating sound, vibrations and waves, heat and geometric optics. Lecture and laboratory courses are integrated in a class room equipped with computers, interfaced probes and traditional laboratory equipment that enhances the interactive learning, hands-on experiences and conceptual understanding of physics. Three two hour lecture/lab sessions and one one-hour problem session per week. Corequisite: MATH 2070. Prerequisite: PHYS 1121. (4 Credits)
