PHY 150 — Physics
Physics is the foundation of all sciences and technologies. Thisalgebra/trigonometry-based physics course is designed to serveAssociate of Applied Science students in trade and technicaloccupations. Its purpose is to acquaint the student with basic physicalconcepts relating to measurement, the interaction forces, work andenergy, properties of fluids, thermodynamics, and power. Studentsgain a broad understanding through the use of unifying principlesacross multiple energy systems. There is an emphasis on standardunits of measurement, formulae, and written and spoken languageassociated with these basic physical concepts. Laboratory activitiesadd to course content and reinforce course objectives.Prerequisites: Any 100-level math course.
