Learning Outcomes
Upon successful completion of this course, the student will be able to:
- Convert units and use dimensional analysis. [1, 2]
- Analyze translational and rotational motion in one and two dimensions using kinematics, free body diagrams and Newton's laws of motion. [1, 2]
- Analyze torques in equilibrium and non-equilibrium systems. [1, 2]
- Apply conservation of momentum to solve one and two dimensional collision problems. [1, 2]
- Analyze equilibrium and non-equilibrium systems using work and mechanical energy. [1, 2]
- Use stress and strain to characterize material behaviour. [1, 2]
- Interpret documented experimental procedures. [3, 7]
- Document data collected in laboratory experiments, and present experimental data graphically. [3, 7]
- Assess and propagate experimental uncertainties. [3]
- Interpret experimental agreement quantitatively, using comparison plots, overlap, percent difference and the coefficient of determination. [3]
