This course examines the classical foundations of physics and modern twentieth-century physics. Topics included in the classical foundation are description of motion, free fall, force, weight, and mass; Newton's laws of motion and law of gravitation; momentum; work and energy; the atomic nature of matter; temperature, heat, and energy; and electricity and magnetism. Topics in twentieth-century physics include electronics, wave properties and particle properties of light, photons and the photoelectric effect, the nucleus and Bohr's treatment of the hydrogen atom, the wave nature of matter, X-rays, radioactivity, nuclear structure, and nuclear transformations.

This course builds on basic algebra and deals with various systems of numbers that can be constructed by adding imaginary units to the real numbers with applications in physics. The computer workshop consists of a Unix file server with x-stations running a mathematical package; this allows students to carry on computations on real numbers with the ease of a hand calculator.

The honors program in Natural Sciences is intended for the outstanding student. Each student conducts an experimental (laboratory/field) or theoretical project under the close supervision of a faculty mentor. The data collected will be used to write the thesis. The thesis must contain original research of publishable caliber. The student will also write an abstract that summarizes the work for the educated layperson. (Upon thesis approval, this abstract will be placed on the Natural Sciences website.) An oral presentation must be made at a Bio-Med Society meeting or equivalent public forum.

This course serves as an introduction to Physics, especially for students who are not science-oriented. A selected number of basic physical ideas are carefully examined and interpreted non-mathematically. The relevance of the scientist and his/her work to the lives of non-scientists is continually examined.
