Content: Introduction to classical mechanics and thermodynamics. Physics 141 is the first course of a two-semester, non-calculus introductory physics sequence. The student is expected to be competent in algebra, trigonometry, and plane geometry. Physics 141 and 142 are appropriate courses to satisfy a one-year physics requirement for various professional schools. Students who intend to pursue a BS in mathematics or one of the sciences should consider Physics 151 (not offered summer session). There are two, three-hour laboratories each week.
