Physics 71: Introductory Mechanics

MW 1:15-2:30pm
Andrew 157

This is a half-course on basic classical mechanics intended for students who have taken Physics 70. The central goal is for you to strengthen your understanding of the basic principles of physics that relate forces and interactions to motion. We will build on the foundation established last semester by first exploring problem solving via conservation laws and then studying forces and Newton's laws of motion.

It is important that you read the syllabus for the course, which includes information about course policies, grading, and a tentative schedule of topics and reading assignments. The handout on homework policies is important, too.

Most of the online content for the course (including a schedule and some of the class handouts) will be on the colleges' Sakai course management system. Look at the course there for more information.
