PH 130. Basic Physics 1

Credits: 5
Prerequisite(s): MA 125 (or MA 127, MA 128, and MA 129) with a C or better.

This course will enable the student to approach physics with practical applications. Force, work, rate, and momentum and resistance are taught in the course. Students are shown how these five concepts are applied to four energy systems - mechanical, fluidal, electrical, and thermal. Students perform practical laboratory experiments that relates each concept to the four energy systems.
