PHYS 160 General Physics I

This course introduces Newton's Laws of Motion and their use in analyzing real life situations involving force, motion, equilibrium, elasticity, friction, and gravity. Students learn to use the principle of Conservation of Energy to solve problems involving thermal, gravitational, rotational, and chemical energy. The course also covers basic concepts of heat and thermodynamics, as well as static and dynamic properties of fluids. There is a lab component to the course.
