PROPOSAL FOR THE INSTITUTION OF PHYS 101 (NEWTONIAN MECHANICS)
I. IDENTIFYING AND DESCRIPTIVE INFORMATION

A. Course Catalog Description
1. Course Number: PHYS 101
2. Course Title: Newtonian Mechanics
3. Course Description: Kinematics, Newtonian statics and dynamics, gravitation
4. Prerequisite/s: None
5. Semester/s Offered: 1
6. Course Credit: 4 units
7. Number of Hours: 3 class, 3 lab
8. Course Goal: For the students to develop a conceptual and empirical understanding of
fundamental concepts in classical mechanics through worked problems and experimental
verification of theoretical laws.
B. Rationale
Currently, fundamental concepts in physics are crammed in a threesemester series. To cov
er all the topics from classical mechanics to modern physics, depth and rigor are often sacrificed.

This series is being expanded to allow sufficient time for indepth discussions and exercises.
Topics are spread over four 4unit courses (equivalent to four semesters). Historical developments
are incorporated in the subject matter to familiarize students with the thought process and the art
of discerning important features of models and systems. Contemporary applications are also pre
sented to prepare applied physics majors for upperlevel courses and research.
PHYS 101 is the first course in the new fundamental physics series. It seeks to develop
among students fundamental understanding of kinematics, Newtonian statics and dynamics, and
gravitation as well as proficiency in solving related problems. The laboratory component of the
course aims to develop students’ skill in experimental concept building and verification of principles.

This is a core course in the BS Applied Physics curriculum.

C. Course Outline
1. Course Outcomes
