PHYZ 201 Physics with Lab

This course is an introduction to physics primarily for liberal arts and health science majors that will give students a fundamental understanding of the basic laws of nature and their impact on our health and our universe. The course will explore basic concepts in classical mechanics (matter, motion, work, energy), thermodynamics (temperature and heat), electricity and magnetism, light and optics, and some elements of modern physics (nuclear radiation). Students will develop analytical thinking by learning problem-solving techniques and by observation and application in online lab sessions.
