The concepts and relations (force, energy and momentum) describing physical interactions and the changes in motion they produce, along with applications to the physical and life sciences. Lab experiments, lectures and problem-solving activities are interwoven into each class. Discussion sections offer additional help with mathematics, data analysis and problem solving. This course satisfies medical school and engineering requirements for an introductory physics I course with labs. Students are enrolled in the following priority order: first-year students, then second-years, then juniors, then seniors. All upper-class students are wait-listed until first-years have registered. Prerequisite: MTH 111 or equivalent. Enrollment limited to 28.
