3 How to Succeed in this Class Come to Class! Read the Book/Outline the book BEFORE lecture. Take notes during class & rewrite them after. Check out the power point lectures online. Try the Homework Problems before Discussion Section COME TO MY OFFICE HOUR! Join MESA & Use the Tutorial Center! Form study groups and make regular meeting dates! Use the Phys/Eng Library to study in! Use other textbooks for more solved problems. Make up practice exams and practice taking tests! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! PRACTICE! No NEGATIVE TALK! LOVE PHYSICS!
4 Booze and Pot make you Stupid! Heavy drinking affects the hippocampus of the brain, which is involved in memory and learning. The short-term effects of marijuana can include problems with memory and learning; distorted perception; difficulty in thinking and problem solving; loss of coordination; and increased heart rate. Both booze and pot effect brain function days after you drink or smoke!
5 SRJC Student Guide...a successful student must dedicate 2-3 hours outside class for every hour in class. In other words, a student taking 12 units is spending 12 hours in class and hours outside of class in order to succeed. A full time student has a full-time job just being a student. Schedule your time so you study/solve hw problems when you are at your mental best. Do everything else (work, shop, exercise, sleep, etc.) during your less productive times. Learn how you Learn!
6 What IS Physics?
7 Physics is... The science that deals with matter, energy, motion and force. - Random House Dictionary
8 Objectives of Physics To find the limited number of fundamental laws that govern natural phenomena To use these laws to develop theories that can predict the results of future experiments Express the laws in the language of mathematics Physics explores the full spectrum of the cosmos from subatomic particles to clusters of galaxies, to the edge of space and time...
9 From Subatomic Particles. to atoms.
10 to stuff on Earth.
11 creating new technologies.
12 and super power.
13 exploring Earth, Moon, Sun and planets.
14 to the stars and beyond
15 to clusters of Galaxies far, far away in space and back in time.
16 to the beginning and end of space and time.
17 Physics seeks a single theory of Everything. Bubble Universes Superstrings Theory of Everything (TOE)
18 Physics 40 IS Classical Mechanics! Study of the motion of objects and mechanical systems that are large relative to atoms and move at speeds much slower than the speed of light.
19 Classical vs Modern Laws of Physics are deterministic. Space and time are absolute. Particles are Localized in Space and have mass and momentum. Waves are non-localized in space and do not have mass or momentum. Superposition: Two particles cannot occupy the same space at the same time! But Waves can! Waves add in space and show interference. Laws of Physics are statistical. Space and time are relative. The speed of light is absolute. Particles are wave-like Waves are particle-like
20 Modern Physics: Quantum Physics & Relativity
21 You can t get to Modern Physics without doing Classical Physics! The fundamental laws and principles of Classical Physics are the basis Modern Physics.
22 Physics 40: Mechanics Kinematics: The physics of motion Newton s Three Laws of Motion Energy: Kinetic and Potential Linear & Angular Momentum Conservation Laws Newton s Universal Law of Gravity Physics 41: Waves, Thermo, Optics Physics 42: E &M Physics 43: Modern Physics
23 Physics 40 IS Newtonian Physics!
24 Isaac Newton ( ) In Principia (1687 ) Newton Invented Calculus 3 Laws of Motion Universal Law of Gravity The force of gravity is Universal: The same force that makes an apple fall to Earth, causes the moon to fall around the Earth and the planets to orbit the Sun.
