Physics I

3 credits · Undergraduate

Fundamental physical principles that are necessary for the understanding of the agricultural sciences form the core material of this course. Classical physics topics include vector analysis, dynamics, statics, fluid mechanics, acoustics, and heat. Concepts derived from modern physics are added in order to complete the classical theories. Weekly student laboratory sessions allow for direct investigation of the theories studied in the course. PREREQUISITES: Students without High School Grade 12 Physics are strongly encouraged to take a university preparatory Physics course; Prerequisite/Corequisite: MTHA 1000 EXCLUSIONS: Students may take either PHYS 1000 or PHYS 1002, but not both, for credit.
