Physics (PHYS) |
A course for students not majoring in science. Physical principles are presented with emphasis on non-quantitative, practical applications of these concepts. This course satisfies one semester of the science requirement for the Associate-in-Arts Degree. (Prerequisite: Basic knowledge of algebra is helpful.) Lecture: 3 hours, Lab: 2 hours
Mechanics and heat are studied as the basic topics of this course. One hour recitation for Respiratory Therapy Students. (Prerequisite: High school algebra) Lecture: 3 hours, Lab: 3 hours
Sound, electricity and magnetism, light, atomic and nuclear theories and their applications are studied in this course. (Prerequisite: This course is a sequence to General Physics I) Lecture: 3 hours, Lab: 3 hours
A course designed for students in the Electronic Engineering and Mechanical Engineering Technology programs. Mechanics, sound, temperature and heat are studied. Lecture: 3 hours, Lab: 3 hours
A course designed for students in the Electronic Engineering Technology program. Electrical circuits, simple harmonic motion and selected topics in modern physics are studied. (Prerequisite: PHYS 1050) Lecture: 3 hours, Lab: 3 hours
Course contents include the components of optical fiber systems, devices, integrated optics, light source and detectors, complex and distribution network. (Prerequisite: Basic knowledge of algebra and trigonometry, some background in physics is helpful, but not required.) Lecture: 3 hour, Lab: 3 hour
A study of the basic equations of mechanics, heat and thermodynamics. This course is usually taken by engineering students in the second semester of the first year. Lecture: 4 hours, Lab: 3 hours
The fundamentals of electrical and radiation physics. The student gains an under standing of the basic principles underlying the operation of x-ray equipment and auxiliary devices. Open only to students currently enrolled in Radiography program. (Prerequisite: MATH 1700 or its equivalent) Lecture: 3 hours, Lab: 2 hours
