    Description
    Students will study basic principles: vectors, Newton's laws of motion, work, and the conservation principles of energy, momentum, elasticity, and thermodynamics. Also covered in this course will be gravitation, fluids, waves, and simple harmonic motion. This is the first of a two-semester course in general physics for students not needing calculus-based physics. (C-ID PHYS 105 and PHYS 100S when combined with PHYS 002B )
