Upon successful completion of this program, the students will be able to:
Construct a free body diagram, apply Newton’s Laws, solve the equations, describe the relationships between physical quantities in the equations, and conduct dimensional analysis.
Use the principles of work, conservation of energy and/or conservation of momentum to solve a Newtonian mechanics problem, describe the relationships between physical quantities in the equations, and conduct dimensional analysis.
Use the first and/or second law of thermodynamics to interpret heat, work and internal energy, describe relationships between physical quantities in the equations, and conduct dimensional analysis.
Use Ohm’s Law and Kirchoff’s Laws to find currents in circuit branches and voltage drops across circuit elements.
Collaborate respectfully and effectively with peer group using basic laboratory equipment safely to conduct experiments, collect data, and/or analyze data via graphs/equations.
