  • PHYS 100: Physical Science

    1.00 - 2.00 Credits
    SUNY College at Potsdam

    PHYS 100 -- Physical Science (3) A course for non-science majors and constructed to meet the needs and requirements of students in the Elementary Education curriculum. The laboratory activities are the central focus of the class, using active inquiry and collaborative group work to guide students toward discovering the nature of physical phenomena. The topics studied are chosen broadly from physics, typically including consideration of properties of matter and mechanical behavior, light, heat, the causes of geophysical phenomena such as tides, seasons and the movement of celestial objects. Lab required. Fall and Spring. Gen Ed: SP & LB credit.

  • PHYS 101: College Physics I

    1.00 - 3.00 Credits
    SUNY College at Potsdam

    PHYS 101 -- College Physics I (4) The first term of a non-calculus two term sequence (with PHYS 202) of introductory physics. The course is constructed to meet the needs of students who desire an introductory physics course of two-term duration. The first term covers motion and mechanical forces; work, energy and power; gravity; oscillations, waves and sound; heat. College Physics places a greater emphasis on an understanding of qualitative properties and less on the development of skill in analytical methods and computation compared to University Physics. Fall. Gen Ed: SP & LB credit.

  • PHYS 130: Musical Acoustics

    1.00 - 3.00 Credits
    SUNY College at Potsdam

    PHYS 130 -- Musical Acoustics (3) The physics of music and sound. A study of the physical properties and processes related to the production of sound with particular attention to musical sounds: vibrations and oscillations as the sources of waves and wave properties, and those of sound waves in particular; the mathematical and psychophysical basis of musical scales; the structure and function of the human ear and how it detects and processes sounds; how musical instruments produce the sounds that they do and the similarities and differences among them; the physical properties behind musical characteristics, such as pitch, loudness and timbre (quality): aspects of environmental sound, including loudness, reflection and absorption. Examples of the phenomena are furnished by classroom demonstrations using oscillation and wave apparatus and actual musical instruments. Neither high school physics nor prior musical instruction is expected or required. Students enrolling in this course are encouraged to register at the same time for PHYS 131, when it is offered. Gen Ed: SP credit.
