PHYS2050 is the laboratory course to supplement the lecture course material. First semester of a two-semester calculus-based introduction to physics primarily for biology majors and premedical students. The development and application of classical physical principles are covered, and students are introduced to more advanced mathematical techniques to extend these applications. Emphasis is placed on problem-solving to better understand the implications of these principles, as well as to develop analytical skills. Topics include classical mechanics, including Newton's laws, energy, rotational motion, hydrostatics and fluid dynamics, oscillations, waves, and gravitation.

By far the best Physics 1 and 2 prof. Reasonable workload/grading. Assignments are straightforward; exams are tweaked class/quiz examples. No curve, but 50% of the grade is earned via attendance and open-note work and he is great about giving points back.
