-
6.00 Credits
This course is a basic study of the principles of physics and mechanics, including motion, force, vectors work, energy, machines, properties of matter, behavior of fluids, temperature and heat, properties of gases wave motion, electricity, light, and nuclear physics. Problem solving techniques are stressed. Corequisite: MT 125. Lecture: 6 credits (150 contact hours).
-
3.00 Credits
A non-calculus approach to the concepts and applications of the physical principles of force, work, rate resistance, energy, power, force transformers and gas laws is presented in this course. Students are shown by examples, classroom demonstration, and laboratory experiments how these concepts are applied to the translational and rotational mechanical, fluidal, electrical and thermal energy systems. Problem solving techniques and scientific method are stressed throughout this course. Prerequisite: MT 115 or MT 125. Lecture: 3 credits (45 contact hours).
-
3.00 Credits
This one semester course provides an introduction to the concepts of physics for students planning to teach in elementary and middle schools. Topics include structure and properties of matter, mechanics, and electricity. Lecture: 2 credits (30 contact hours). Laboratory: 1 credit (30 contact hours).
