Principles Of Physics-Mechanics

Catalog description

Cat. I Introductory calculus-based course with laboratory in Newtonian mechanics, at a somewhat higher level than PH 1110. Topics include: kinematics of motion, vectors and their application to physical problems, dynamics of particles and rigid bodies, energy and momentum conservation, rotational motion. Students may not receive credit for both PH 1111 and PH 1110. Recommended Background Working knowledge of differential and integral calculus (MA 1021 and MA 1022). Students concurrently taking MA 1022 are advised to take PH 1110.
