Physics 1A - WPHY140
This unit covers some of the fundamental ideas in physics that are important in a broad range of engineering and science applications. Students will be introduced to some of the most basic laws and principles of physics that describe the motion, interactions of objects, measurement, and electric and magnetic phenomena. Because problem solving is paramount in physics and engineering, students will be required to integrate basic mathematics with the laws and principles of physics to solve elementary problems. Students will also learn measurement skills, teamwork, and data analysis skills in a well-equipped physics laboratory.
