SCOPE | |||||||||
This is the second course of a two-semester introductory calculus-based physics sequence. It is a comprehensive study of mechanics and electromagnetism designed to provide a solid foundation in physics principles and problem-solving techniques for all cadets. The course includes a detailed study of the principles of conservation of energy and momentum for translational and rotational motion, and orbital mechanics. It concludes with a study of electrostatics, magnetic fields, and circuits. An integrated laboratory program introduces cadets to the principles of experiment design, error analysis, and technical writing. The course is structured around a military storyline that demonstrates the relevance of physics to the technology of the 21st Century Army. | |||||||||
