PHYS 130 S - General Physics I


Minimum Credit(s) Awarded: 4
Maximum Credit(s) Awarded: 4

This semester includes principles of classic mechanics, including kinematics, Newton’s Laws, and energy. Emphasis is placed on applications in the real world (including biological and environmental applications). Students follow a guided inquiry approach to build on the concepts learned through hands-on activities involving exploration, modeling, and calculations. This course is an integrated lecture/laboratory that meets in three two-hour sessions per week. When taken concurrently with PHYS 230 , this course is equivalent to a calculus-based course.

Offered Fall, Spring

Prerequisite(s): Math placement level 3 or completion of MATH 114A  or higher.
