PH 211 Introduction to Physics I (Calculus) (Fall: 4)
Prerequisite:
MT 100 (May be taken concurrently)
Corequisite:
PH 213
Satisfies Natural Science Core Requirement
PH 203 is the laboratory course to supplement the lecture course material.
First semester of a two-semester calculus-based introduction to physics
primarily for biology majors and premedical students. The development and
application of classical physical principles are covered, and students are
introduced to more advanced mathematical techniques to extend these applications.
Emphasis is placed on problem-solving to better understand the implications
of these principles, as well as to develop analytical skills. Topics include
classical mechanics, including Newton's laws, energy, rotational motion,
hydrostatics and fluid dynamics, oscillations, waves, and gravitation.
