PHY.Q 251 - Fundamentals of Physics I

(PEQ Science) Is it possible to describe the natural world with a small number of fundamental physical principles? If so, what are these principles? This course explores these questions in regard to the mechanics of nature. Using mathematics, these principles can describe ordinary phenomena in daily life. Topics include: linear and rotational motion, static and dynamic equilibrium and work, described using Newton’s Laws and the principles of conservation of energy and momentum. Course Codes: R. Prereq: MTH.Q 113. Coreq: PHY.Q 203L, PHY 255. This PEQ course counts as a Global course.
