PHYS 110L Introductory Physics I Laboratory
Accompanies PHYS110. The objectives are to develop the skills necessary both to carry out experiments in physics, to formulate and test your predictions and to record, analyze, and interpret experimental data acquired during those experiments. It is also intended to confirm the principles learned in the lecture course, and aid comprehension by showing how these principles are applied in practical situations. Students will learn and use the basic concepts of Mechanics as a tool for understanding the real world and apply the scientific method to study mechanical phenomena in the laboratory by conducting experiments on mechanical systems. The grade from this laboratory component is factored into the grade earned for the required PHYS110 corequisite.
