PHY 352 - Physics of the Environment II

3 credits
Prerequisites: PHY 351
A continuation of PHY 351, with a more detailed study including the economics of sustainable energy sources such as solar, wind, biomass and hydrogen power. Other sources of power such as hydroelectric, fission and fusion are also discussed. We continue with more studies of the atmosphere, pollution and its effect on the ecology. The mathematical models are more elaborate but calculus is not a prerequisite.
