A study of mechanics and simple harmonic motion at the calculus level with engineering applications. Investigation of lecture-related materials with an emphasis on the relationship of theoretical concepts to realistic measurements. A continuation of PHY 2048 involving selected topics from sound, thermodynamics, optics, electricity, and magnetism.
Application is towards nonengineering fields.
PHY 2053L 2 hrs. Laboratory work involves investigation of lecture-related materials and alternative approaches to problem solving. PHY 2054L. A continuation of PHY 2053 involving selected topics from mechanics, wave motion, sound, optics, electricity, magnetism, and atomic physics. Satisfactory reading scores on the Florida College-Level Entry Placement Test or completion of REA 0009 with a minimum grade of C. POS 2041 or its equivalent. Throughout the study, these governments will be compared to the American method of government.
