A continuation of 275. Topics include electricity, magnetism, light and an introduction to modern physics. The action of forces on static coplanar systems with application to engineering structures and machines. Vector resultants, moment of torque, couples, equivalent force systems and vector algebra, along with static equilibrium conditions and equations will be studied. The computer is used to aid in instruction in all of these areas.
Emphasis is placed on the development of process and critical thinking skills.
An introduction to the analysis and design of electronic circuits, and device physics. Basic analysis and design is covered including the use of computer aided design in electronics. Laboratory activities include both computer analysis and hardware implementation. Applications to computers, television, radio and other instrumentations are discussed. A more advanced study of selected topics in electricity and modern physics including introductory concepts in atomic and nuclear physics.
