PHYS 040 - Advanced Physics


(120 contact hours)

Physics 040 introduces physical laws governing motion, forces, waves, energy and electricity. This course uses geometry, algebra, graphs, and vectors to describe physical phenomena. It also emphasizes conceptual understanding rather than numerical computation. In addition, the course’s laboratory experiments illustrate physical laws and develop measurement and data analysis skills. This course is equivalent to Physics 11.

Prerequisites:
  1. One of:
    • SCIE 030  with a grade of ‘C’ or higher or equivalent
    • Science 10 with a grade of ‘C’ or higher or equivalent
  2. And one of:
    • MATH 040 with a grade of ‘C’ or higher, or equivalent
    • Foundations of Math 11 with a grade of ‘C’ or higher, or equivalent
    • Pre-calculus 11 with a grade of ‘C’ or higher, or equivalent
    • Provincial Level Placement or higher on the CCP Assessment of Math Skills

Restrictions: Must have been admitted to an NLC program.
