PHY-1010 Introductory Physics I Credits 4 Fundamental concepts and basic laws of mechanics, heat, and thermodynamics using a noncalculus approach. Not recommended for science/engineering majors. Science general education class. Prerequisite(s): MAT-1350 with grade of C or higher. EGL-1010 completed or concurrent. 3 class/1 rec/2 lab hours. (Not offered summer.)
Course Outcomes
- Distinguish between scalar and vector physical quantities.
- Apply the laws of motion to solve kinematics problems for motions in one and two dimensions.
- Apply the concepts of force, gravitation, momentum, and energy to solve problems in basic mechanics and thermodynamics.
- Use the concepts of pressure, buoyancy, and continuity to solve problems in basic fluid mechanics.
- Investigate the behavior of physical systems in the lab and report any discrepancy between the experimental behavior/results and the expected behavior/results.
