3.00 Credits
This is a general course which uses calculus to stress the understanding of physical principles and the methods of problem solving. The first semester covers the basic principles of mechanics, heat, and the kinetic theory of gases. The second semester covers electricity, magnetism, wave motion, and light. In the laboratory, experiments are performed illustrating the basic physical principles and methods of experimental science. Prerequisites: Calculus I is a prerequisite for Physics Ic, Physics Ic is a prerequisite for Physics IIc. 3 hours Lecture and Discussion, 3 hours Laboratory - 4 credits each. Students may take the lab that accompanies MP 2119 or MP 2219.
