PHYS 101 Technical Physical Science
This physical science course covers basic introductory physics and chemistry and is designed for Allied Health program majors (RadTech and Cardiovascular), technology majors (BMET, Computer Support, and Electronics) and other non-science majors. It consists of basic scientific mathematics and an integrated sequence of physical science and chemical principles. This course will enable students to become aware of, to identify, and to evaluate situations and/or problems in contemporary physical science which include: science measurement and dimensional plus statistical analysis techniques. Special emphasis is placed upon learning physics principles and solving mathematical problems in density/specific gravity, gas laws, solutions, pressure, fluids, basic electricity, magnetism, sound and light waves, and the atomic structure of matter. The laboratory program will allow the student to develop an understanding of the fundamental principles of the above mentioned areas, including problem solving, and their application to physical phenomenon observed.
