PHYS2010 — College Physics I
Academic Division: Business, Industry and Technology Academic Discipline: Physics Assistant Dean: Vincent Palombo PhD 4 Credit(s) This is a calculus based physics course that has a study of Classical Newtonian Mechanics including measurement systems, dimensional analysis, vectors, scalars, linear, circular and rotational motion, forces in equilibrium, acceleration, work, and energy. A study of material properties including density, and hydraulic principles (both static and kinetic). Also a study of waves, and sound including simple harmonic motion, vibrations, reflection, transmission, interference and resonance for waves, intensity, sources, interference, and Doppler Effect for sound. UG 3 Lab Hour(s) 3 Lecture Hour(s); Required as Write a lab report for each laboratory performed. Evaluation will be based on accuracy of data taken, logical consistency of mathematical methods, appropriateness of tables and graphs, completion of required steps, evaluation of the validity of the mathematical models used, identification of sources of error, appropriate use of technology and ability to communicate clearly in writing. Homework, labs, quizzes, and exams during the weeks 1-16. 2. Calculate all missing kinematical variables (including direction of the variable when appropriate), given a problem in one or two-dimensional kinematics (involving position, velocity, and acceleration) of a single object with a constant acceleration. Homework, labs, quizzes, and exams during the weeks 1-16.
