Physics 1

The goal of this course is to provide students with a thorough understanding of the fundamentals of classical physics. Physics 1 is a laboratory based course that teaches traditional physics concepts in the context of four energy systems - mechanical, fluid, electrical, and thermal. 


Throughout the course, you will be asked to carry out physics experiments in lab settings and report on your findings in the form of lab reports. These reports may be in written formal or informal format. Homework and classwork assignments will also be given to assess student progress and understanding through a unit.
