PHYS 050 - Provincial Physics


(120 contact hours)

Physics 050 extends the introductory study of physical laws and concentrates on governing motion and forces to two dimensions. It also looks at electrostatics and electromagnetism. It uses mathematics to describe physical phenomena, with extensive use of vectors and trigonometry. In addition, the course’s laboratory experiments enhance the understanding of physical concepts and develop skills in planning, performing, and analyzing experiments. This course is equivalent to Physics 12.

Prerequisites:
  1. One of:
    • PHYS 040  with a grade of C or higher, or equivalent
    • Physics 11 with a grade of C or higher, or equivalent
  2. And one of:
    • MATH 040  or higher with a grade of C or higher, or equivalent
    • Foundations of Math 11 or higher with a grade of C or higher, or equivalent
    • Pre-calculus 11 or higher with a grade of C or higher, or equivalent
