-
3.00 Credits
Hands-on application of the topics covered in PHYS101.
-
3.00 Credits
This course is designed to provide students with an understanding of the basic principles of physics dealing with measurement, machines, heat properties of solids, liquids and gases; and the calculations required to solve for mechanical applications. Examples selected will be directly utilized in various technologies through the application of vectors, basic algebra and trigonometry processes. The concepts of work and energy will be applied throughout the course.
-
3.00 Credits
Hands-on application of the topics covered in PHYS102.
-
3.00 Credits
This course will explore the principles and applications of physics we encounter in our day-to-day lives. The math used will be as low a level as possible, no higher than elementary algebra. Maximum emphasis will be placed on conceptual understanding. Active class participation and oral reporting are an integral part of the course. Topics may vary somewhat according to student interests. Toys, sports, the human body, heat, electronics, music and many other topics will be explored.
-
2.00 Credits
The first semester of a two-semester course in general physics. The emphasis will be placed on all branches of physics and their mathematical implications. It is assumed that each student will be quite familiar with the process of algebra and right triangle trigonometry. Areas of study will include: classical mechanics using a vector approach to statics and dynamics of rigid and non-rigid bodies, concepts of work, energy, power, momentum, heat and thermodynamics. Prerequisites: Satisfactory completion of three years of high school mathematics or MATH111. Co-requisite: PHYS111X (however, this course may be repeated without lab if PHYS111X has been successfully completed previously)
-
3.00 Credits
Laboratory experience directly related to the material in PHYS111. The activities are designed to develop a better understanding of the concepts covered in lecture, and to develop skills in measurement, error analysis, observation and interpretation. Computers will be used for data acquisition and analysis. Co- or prerequisite: PHYS111
-
3.00 Credits
A continuation of PHYS111. Topics of study will include: electricity and magnetism; wave phenomena; geometircal and physical optics; and an introduction to modern physics (including special and general relativity and quantum theory). Prerequisites: PHYS111, PHYS111X Co-requisite: PHYS112X (however, this course may be repeated without lab if PHYS112X has been successfully completed previously
-
3.00 Credits
Laboratory experience directly related to the material in PHYS112. The activities are designed to develop a better understanding of the concepts covered in lecture, and to develop skills in measurement, error analysis, observation and interpretation. Computers will be used for data acquisition and analysis. Co- or prerequisite: PHYS112
-
3.00 Credits
3 class hrs.; 1 one-hr. recitation - 3 credits FALL Prerequisite: High School Regents physics or PHYS 111 or equivalent; and one semester of calculus Co-requisite: PHYS 211X (however, this course may be repeated without lab if PHYS 211X has been completed previously) Emphasis will be placed on familiarity with all branches of physics and the application of calculus to derivation of equations, problem-solving, data analysis and error analysis. It is assumed that each student will be familiar with elementary techniques of differentiation and integration. Areas of study will include: classical mechanics, work and energy, conservation laws, simple harmonic motion, wave motion, gravitation, heat and thermodynamics. Credit may not be earned for both PHYS 111 and PHYS 211.
