PHYS& 114 General Physics I (5 credits)
Distribution Area Fulfilled Natural Sciences with Lab; General Transfer Elective Formerly PHYS& 121
Prerequisite MATH& 142 or PHYS 139 with at least a 2.0 grade or instructor permission.
Course Description The first quarter of a three-quarter algebra-based sequence in physics. The course covers topics in mechanics, including kinematics of motion, force, work, energy, momentum, kinematics & dynamics of rotation, and static equilibrium. Lab included.
Student Outcomes 1. Qualitatively and quantitatively describe the natural world by applying the principles of physics covered in course content.
2. Correctly relate each physical quantity of the symbol that represents it and the unit specific to the quantity, in order to effectively communicate.
3. Demonstrate appropriate skills/strategies to solve physical problems.
4. Interpret experiments using measurement tools and data analysis to draw meaningful conclusions about physical systems.
5. Demonstrate effectively working with peers in a collaborative setting to solve problems, conduct laboratory experiments, and/or produce reports.
