Catalog

(Alge bra Based) Prerequisites: MATH 1141 and 1142, or equivalent. Or: MATH 1120 or MATH 1141 Students with the following majors: EENG, ENDS, AVIT, and CSCI. An introductory algebra-based survey course suitable for science and pre-med majors, covering the topics of measurement, space, time, vectors, one dimensional and multi-dimensional motion, dynamics, forces, work and energy, conservation of energy, systems of par- ticles, collisions, rotational motion, rotational dynamics, elasticity, fluids, gravitation, waves and sound, heat and thermodynamics. The lab portion of the course provides concurrent hands on experiments, which require imperial data to be collected, analyzed, and synthesized to solidify the physical concepts in PHYS 2201.
