PHYS& 221 - Engineering Physics I with Lab

5.0 Credits
Physics for people with an interest in becoming scientists or engineers. Topics covered will be kinematics, dynamics, momentum, and energy. S/U grade option.
Prerequisite ENGL& 101 and MATH& 151, each with a minimum grade of 2.0.
Course-level Learning Objectives (CLOs)
Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to:

Demonstrate a thorough understanding, at the majors’ level, of the basic principles of Newtonian dynamics, kinematics, energy, and momentum.
Develop a clear understanding of the scientific method and its application to these principles.
Apply quantitative measures to situations involving these principles and develop a strong facility for working problems based on these principles.
Analyze a physical system to decide what information and principles are relevant to understanding the behavior of the systems.
Clearly communicate fundamental knowledge particular to physics with their peers using appropriate vocabulary.
