Physics 107 is a calculus based introduction to Newtonian mechanics, electricity and magnetism, and geometrical optics. Topics include kinematics and dynamics of motion, applications of Newton's laws, energy, and momentum conservation, rotational motion, electric and magnetic fields and forces, electric circuits, the laws of reflection and refraction, and the theory of basic optical instruments. Laboratory experiments utilize cooperative group work, video analysis, and data analysis to help illustrate physics principles. Prerequisitse(s) or Corequisites(s): Mathematics 105. Enrollment is limited to 72 per section. Normally offered every Fall Semester.
