Topics to be covered are linear and rotational motion, forces, kinetic and potential energy, momentum, and translational and rotational equilibrium. Includes one 2-hour lab per week. Topics to be covered are mechanical properties of matter, behavior of fluids harmonic motion and waves, basic thermodynamics, and an introduction to electricity. Includes one 2-hour lab per week. A survey course in physics for the non-science or undecided major.
Emphasis is on conceptual understanding rather than computation.
