This course provides an introduction to the dynamics of particles and bodies that includes the principles of work, energy, impulse, and momentum applied to translating and rotating rigid bodies.

PHY 2015 and MATH 2203

The student shall be able to

1. Demonstrate understanding of kinematics (geometrical aspects) of particle motion
2. Apply Newton’s Laws using force and acceleration to determine a particle’s motion
3. Apply Work-Energy and Conservation of Energy principles to determine a particle’s motion
4. Apply Principle of Impulse and Momentum and Principle of Conservation of Momentum to determine a particle’s motion
5. Apply Newton’s Laws using force and acceleration to determine a rigid body’s motion in a plane
6. Apply Work-Energy and Conservation of Energy principles to determine a rigid body’s motion in a plane
7. Apply Principle of Impulse and Momentum and Principle of Conservation of Momentum to determine a rigid body’s motion in a plane
8. Demonstrate understanding of kinematics and kinetics of a rigid body moving in three dimensions

Attendance is not required, but you will responsible for any announcements or notes from class. Attendance for scheduled exams is mandatory. If you must miss an exam you must notify me by phoning me or the Physics Department Office, or by e-mailing. In each case of notification you must state an excuse, and time of notification. If your excuse is approved (by me) then a suitable replacement for the missing grade will be determined. Otherwise, a zero will be assigned for the exam.

Cheating or academic dishonesty of any kind will not be tolerated. If you are unsure about a particular matter like working with others on your HW (almost always acceptable) or rote copying of someone else’s HW to turn in (never acceptable) please ask me. Plagiarism of any sort will result in a grade of F in the course and possible further action by the University.

The following table shows the breakdown of credit for the course.

HW (approx. 10 assignments) 20%

2 Exams 20% (Total of 40%)

Special Project and Miscellaneous 5%

Quizzes 15%

Final 20%

I will attempt to stay with the grading scale as below:

>=90% A

80-90% B

70-80% C

60-70% D

<60% F

Homework is worth the equivalent of one test score. Working HW problems in a timely manner is the best way to do well on exams and in the class as a whole.

Homework should be neatly written on only one side of your paper, folded length-wise with your name written on the outside of the folded pages before turning it in. Homework is due at the beginning of the class period on the due-date or due-day. All homework received after this time will be considered late and a suitable penalty will be assigned. Late homework will be accepted until the date of the final, subject to the penalties described above. Better late than never.

Quality points comprise 15% of each homework grade and are based on neatness, arrangement, and overall presentation. In addition, for this class, all problem statements with accompanying diagrams should be reproduced on the homework to be turned in. In other words, write the problem statement.

Students with disabilities who believe they may need accommodations in this class are encouraged to contact Equity Officer Brad Morelli at ext. 2573, or see me after class as soon as possible to better ensure that such accommodations are implemented in a timely fashion.
