• PHYS 1030: Survey of Physics

  4.00 Credits

  Walters State Community College

  
  
  
  This is a one-semester introductory physics course for non-science and non-engineering majors. Emphasis is placed on understanding the nature of physics and applying basic physics concepts in one's everyday life experience and work. The use of mathematics is limited to basic algebraic manipulations required to understand and apply physics concepts. Topics covered include mechanical motion, energy, temperature and heat, fluids, electricity, magnetism, and wave motion. Four hours lecture and four hours laboratory. May be taken with ASTR 1030 to form a two semester sequence in physical science. (TNeCampus Course)

• PHYS 2110: Calculus-Based Physics I

  4.00 Credits

  Walters State Community College

  
  
  First semester of a calculus-based introductory physics course for those in engineering, mathematics, chemistry or physics programs. This course makes extensive use of the tools of algebra, trigonometry and calculus. Topics include the scientific process (mathematical models, inductive/deductive reasoning), basic mechanics (kinematics and Newton’s Laws), thermodynamics (calorimetry, black-body radiation, and the first law of thermodynamics), and conservation laws (momentum and mechanical energy).
