PHYS 221 - Physics I (Calculus Based)

3 lecture hours, no lab hours, 3 credit hours
[LCCN: CPHY 2133]
A calculus-based lecture course in physics. The first of a three-course sequence in classical physics for students who intend to major in physical sciences or engineering. Topics include vectors and Newtonian mechanics (kinematics, Newton’s laws, momentum, work and energy, rotational kinematics, oscillations, elasticity, and equilibrium). The course emphasizes understanding basic principles and problem-solving. The accompanying laboratory for this course is PHYS 223. Prerequisite(s): “C” or higher in MATH 221 Corequisite(s): PHYS 223 Course/Lab Fee $30
