PHYS& 223 - Engineering Physics III (Waves, Light, and Heat) 5 Credits PHYS&223 is the third of three laboratory classes in the calculus-based physics sequence. Topics include periodic motion; waves in multiple dimensions; ray, wave, and particle optics; fluids; and classic thermodynamics.
General education distribution area: Natural Science, with lab.
Prerequisite(s): PHYS&222 with a 2.0 and MATH&152 with a 2.0.
Course Outcomes
- Identify and explain major laws related to waves, light, and fluids.
- Solve physics problems related to waves, oscillation, displacement, refraction, diffraction, fluid flow and pressure, entropy, and other topics.
- Use calculus and relevant mathematical methods to investigate practical engineering scenarios.
- Apply the scientific method in physics laboratory experiments, from hypothesis through testing, data analysis, and conclusion.
