PHYS1121 Physics 1A<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Overview<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This course provides an introduction to Physics. It is a calculus-based course. The course is examined at two levels, with Physics 1A being the lower of the two levels.

Mechanics: particle kinematics in one dimension, motion in two and three dimensions, particle dynamics, work and energy, momentum and collisions, rotation

Thermal physics: temperature, kinetic theory and the ideal gas, heat and the first law of thermodynamics.

Waves: oscillations, wave motion, sound waves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PHYS1131 Higher Physics 1A<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Overview<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This course provides an introduction to Physics. It is a calculus-based course. The course is examined at two levels, with Higher Physics 1A being the higher of the two levels. While the same content is covered as Physics 1A, Higher Physics 1A features more advanced assessment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PHYS1221 Physics 1B<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Overview<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This is the second of the two introductory courses in Physics. The course is examined at two levels, with Physics 1B being the lower of the two levels. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The course covers <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Electromagnetism: electrostatics, Gauss\u2019s law, electric potential, capacitance and dielectrics, magnetic fields and magnetism, Ampere\u2019s law, the Biot-Savart law, Faraday\u2019s law, induction and inductance<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Physical Optics: light, interference, diffraction, gratings and spectra, polarization<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Introductory quantum theory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PHYS1111 Fundamentals of Physics<\/h3><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Overview<\/a><\/h3>

This is an introductory level course in physics for students from all disciplines. The course has both a laboratory and theoretical component. <\/p><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Topics covered include <\/p><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The description of motion; forces and momentum; the dynamics of particles; kinetic and potential energy; the conservation of energy; oscillations and simple harmonic motion; waves, wave reflection, refraction and interference; the wave nature of light; electric fields and charge; electric potential and energy; electric currents; magnetism; electromagnetic induction and Faraday’s law. This is a quantitative course using algebra and trigonometry but not calculus.<\/span>
