    Description
    A trigonometry-level introduction to the modeling of physical phenomena using Newtonian theory and its extensions. Core topics include: kinematics, dynamics, work and energy, momentum, fluids, and simple harmonic motion. This course requires the student to use algebra, trigonometry, abstract concept assimilation, and critical thinking. (CSU/UC-Transfer credit limited. See a counselor.)
