Applied Physics. Course Materials: Physics 111, 112, 113. Seattle Tech Prep Applied Academics Project.
South Seattle Community Coll., Washington.
This publication contains materials for three courses in Applied Physics in the Applied Academics program at South Seattle Community College. It begins with the article, "Community College Applied Academics: The State of the Art?" (George B. Neff), which describes the characteristics, model, courses, and coordination activity that make up this community college applied academics program. Materials provided for each course include the following: course outline (credit, lecture, and lab hours; course description; prerequisites; learning objectives and hours of instruction); course syllabus (course description; required materials; other policies); and course sequence. The first course is a blend of technology principles with lab practices that involve mechanical, fluid, electrical, and thermal systems used by technicians in their everyday work. The second course is a continuation of applied physics with emphasis on rate, energy, power, momentum, resistance, and force transformers. The third course is a continuation of applied physics, emphasizing energy converters, transducers, vibrations and waves, time constants, radiation, and optical systems. (YLB)
