PY 140 College Physics I

The course is designed for students majoring in the sciences and considering careers in the professional sciences, biomedical, and academic areas. PY 140 is the first of a two-semester sequence of College Physics courses designed to provide the student with an overall view of the concepts by setting up and solving simple problems in physics. The course will include concepts and applications of the following topics: kinematics, dynamics, gravitation, energy, momentum, heat, and selected topics in modern and biophysics. The required laboratory will provide students with practical knowledge of Physics and enhance the knowledge gained in the classroom.
