Course title

SCI403: SUMMIT PHYSICS (COMPREHENSIVE)

Pre-requisite

MTH303: Algebra II and MTH403: Pre-Calculus/Trigonometry (or equivalents) (MTH403 strongly recommended as a prerequisite, but this course may instead be taken concurrently with SCI403)

Course description

This course provides a comprehensive survey of all key areas: physical systems; measurement; kinematics; dynamics; momentum; energy; thermodynamics; waves; electricity; and magnetism; and introduces students to modern physics topics such as quantum theory and the atomic nucleus. The course gives students a solid basis to move on to more advanced courses later in their academic careers. The program consists of online instruction; laboratories; and related assessments; plus an associated problem-solving book.
