PHY-215 — Mechanics, Wave Motion, and Thermodynamics
Mechanics, Wave Motion and Thermodynamics is a calculus-based study of the kinematics and dynamics of the motion of rigid bodies, wave propagation and thermodynamics. Topics covered include accelerated motion, Newton's Laws, momentum, energy, rotational motion, gravitation, wave propagation, sound, and heat. and are required of all students majoring in engineering, chemistry, or physics. (The class will meet for three hours of lecture, one hour required discussion and three hours of laboratory per week.)
Prerequisites: MTH-135, MTH-235, PHY-201
