Emphasis was placed on developing conceptual understanding and problem-solving ability. Students had 20 three-hour class meetings consisting of interactive lectures, collaborative workshops, and labs. Students participated in 14 labs, which included the following topics: measuring linear and rotational motion with rulers &amp; stopwatches, video analysis, sonic rangers, rotary motion sensors; vector addition; projectile motion; Newton\u2019s 2<sup>nd<\/sup> law for translations and rotations; conservation of energy including rotational kinetic energy; conservation of momentum; and conservation of angular momentum. Students submitted 8 substantial homework assignments (each 18 problems, some with multiple parts) using the WebAssign on-line homework system. Students took two in-class exams. Students were evaluated through exams, exam revisions, homework assignments, and in-class work.<\/p>\n<p>(Standard) Suggested Course Equivalencies<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>6 \u2013 Algebra-based Physics I with Lab (classical mechanics)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Faculty: Krishna Chowdary, Ph.D. College Physics was an accelerated, intensive summer course that covered the first quarter of a year-long standard sequence in algebra-based introductory physics with lab.
