SCIN106 - Introduction to Physics
View Academic Calendar
This course offers an introduction to classical physics for nonscientists. Students will learn to apply Newtonian principles to the fundamental topics of motion, gravitation, momentum, work and energy, heat, wave behavior, sound and light, electricity and magnetism. Basic algebra is used to demonstrate how mathematics can describe and predict the real-world behavior of objects from electrons to planets. Students will be expected to relate physics principles to their daily lives. Concurrent enrollment in corresponding Lab Course is required.
