This course is designed for students without prior exposure to physics. Students will learn about the major themes of physics: mechanics, electricity, thermodynamics, and waves and sound. Emphasis will be on conceptual understanding of fundamental laws of physics, rather than algebraic manipulation of formulas. Students should be able to manipulate simple algebraic expressions. Prerequisites: College Mathematics ( MATH 1000 ) or Algebra ( MATH 1040 ) or equivalent.
