    Description
    minimum grade of C or concurrent enrollment This is the first course in a four-semester calculus-based physics sequence designed for students with majors in engineering and the physical sciences. The course focuses on the mechanics of solids, with topics including statics, kinematics, Newton's Laws, energy, power, linear and angular momentum, rotational dynamics, elasticity, simple harmonic motion, and gravitation. *Note:themaximumUCcreditallowedforstudentscompletingPHYS120,122andPHYS150,152,250,252isoneseries;deductcreditforduplicationoftopics.
