4 credits
4 hours lecture and laboratory, 1 hour recitation
Corequisites: MTH 114, EGR 102
Calculus-based introduction to the concepts of classical mechanics, emphasizing problem solving and covering the same topics as PHY 113. This course is taught in an active learning mode in a computerized physics studio, with the subject material presented in an integrated format of lectures and laboratory experiments. Topics include 1- and 2-dimensional kinematics and dynamics; Newton’s Laws of Motion; work, energy and momentum. and rotational motion and angular momentum. Many of these topics are further explored in laboratory experiments. This course may be repeated as PHY 113. This course may be repeated as PHY 113.
