PHYS 114L Fundamentals of Physics I Lab
Accompanies PHYS114. 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 apply basic concepts of classical mechanics and energy conservation toward understanding the real world and use the scientific method to experimentally explore mechanical systems. The grade from this laboratory component is factored into the grade earned for the required PHYS114 corequisite.
