18 courses with the subject PHY, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
A fundamental course covering several basic principles of physics. The divisions included are solids and their characteristics, liquids at rest and in motion, gas laws and applications. Laboratory experiments and specialized problems dealing with these topics are part of this course. (Sp,Su)
Major areas covered in this course are motion, work, energy, and power. In- struction includes such topics as force, motion, equilibrium, circular motion, rotational motion, kinetic energy, and momentum. Units of measurement and their application are a vital part of this course. A practical approach is used in teaching students the uses of essential mathematical formulas. The course re- quires an understanding of right triangle trigonometry. (F)
Basic theories of electricity, types of electricity, methods of production, and transmission and transforming of electricity. Electron theory, electricity by chem- ical action, electricity by friction, electricity by magnetism, induction voltage, amperage, resistance, horsepower, wattage, and transformers are major parts of this course.
A survey of the concepts involving wave motion leads to a study of sound, its generation, transmission, and detection. The principles of wave motion also serve as an introduction to a study of light, illumination and the principles involved in optical instruments. Application is stressed throughout.
This course is designed primarily for Respiratory Therapy students as an introduc- tion to physics, chemistry, and microbiology. Those basic principles applicable to Allied Health personnel are explored and demonstrated by laboratory exper- iments so that the students are more comfortable in the clinical setting.
