PHY 111 - Physics: Algebra-Based I with Lab: SC1

Credits: 5(3-2)

Enables the student to explore the truth about physical reality through reasoning, mathematics and experimentation. Examines kinematics, force, circular motion, energy, momentum, torque, rotational dynamics, simple harmonic motion, temperature, heat and thermodynamics. The concepts and theories presented are explored through demonstrations and hands-on experiments. It is a general physics course that is recommended for all of the health sciences and all other interested students. Students entering engineering or one of the advanced sciences should register for PHY 211. Prerequisite(s): Accuplacer RC 80 or Higher or SS 95 or higher or equivalent CCPT scores, or ACT/SAT Scores that exempt the student from Accuplacer/CCPT testing, or successful completion of CCR 092 with grade of SC or higher. Pre/co-requisite(s): Pre/co-requisite: MAT 121.
