Physics Classes
How Things Work: Physics I
Description: This introductory course teaches students the basic mechanics of machines both large and small, breaking them down into components, and then breaking those components down into the fundamental properties of physics. | Skill: Handiness | Class:11:00am – 12:25pm Tues, Thurs |
Coursework: Submit a Term Paper! | Daily Task: Homework |
How Things Break: Physics II
Description: Building upon Physics I, this course examines mechanical components once more, but with a focus on how their use may alter their efficacy. Where Physics I often teaches about the properties in an ideal environment, this class explains how environments are never ideal and how to deal with such discrepancies. | Skill: Handiness | Class:1:30pm – 2:55pm Mon, Wed, Fri |
Coursework: Take Final Exam! | Daily Task: Homework |
It’s Electric!
Description: Electricity powers so many of the things we take for granted nowadays, but how does it actually work? Students will be given a brief overview of the early days of electrical discovery and then delve into the details of how electrons act. | Skill: Robotics | Class:9:30am – 10:55am Tues, Thurs |
Coursework: Give a Presentation! | Daily Task: Homework |
The Mechanics of Movement
Description: Using small robots, students will break down the mechanics of how things move. They will learn about the laws of motion, as well as encounter real-world problems of dealing with movement from the perspective of the machine itself as opposed to an outside observer. | Skill: Robotics | Class:11:00am – 12:25pm Mon, Wed, Fri |
Coursework: Take Final Exam! | Daily Task: Homework |
Observing the Universe: Astrophysics I
Description: With sections on the big bang, historical uses of the sky, and modern space exploration, this course is meant to give students an overview of the variety of ways in which physics is core to out understanding of the universe. | Skill: Rocket Science | Class:3:00pm – 4:25pm Tues, Thurs |
Coursework: Submit a Term Paper! | Daily Task: Homework |
Exploring the Universe: Astrophysics II
Description: We are limited in the amount we can learn about the cosmos when observing from the ground. This course looks at what it means to send shuttles and satellites into space, along with how certainties of being on this planet becomes less certain in other parts of the universe. | Skill: Rocket Science | Class:3:00pm – 4:25pm Mon, Wed, Fri |
Coursework: Take Final Exam! | Daily Task: Homework |
Robotics in Adverse Conditions
Description: As robots are sometimes built to do jobs too dangerous for Sims, building robots must take these kind of conditions into consideration. This course looks at how to use physics knowledge to build bots for the conditions they will be working in, whether it be in the deep sea or out in space. | Skill: Robotics | Class:1:30pm – 2:55pm Tues, Thurs |
Coursework: Give a Presentation! | Daily Task: Homework |
Electromagnetic Attractions
Description: By understanding the properties of electromagnetism, students - with a hands on approach with robotics - will be able to harness natural forces to build things like simple sensors and hoverpods. | Skill: Robotics | Class:1:30pm – 2:55pm Mon, Wed, Fri |
Coursework: Take Final Exam! | Daily Task: Homework |
Series of Tubes: Advanced Fluid Dynamics
Description: Lots of lessons in physics are taught with the assumption that the materials in question are solid. This course looks at what happens when that assumption is false and gives students the equations and extra tools needed to accurately calculate, simulate, and understand the movements of fluids. | Skill: Handiness | Class:8:00am – 9:25am Mon, Wed, Fri |
Coursework: Take Final Exam! | Daily Task: Homework |
How Waves Behave
Description: One of the secrets of the universe is that every super small thing that we imagine in our heads as a dot or particle can actually be seen to act like a wave under the right circumstances. Students will examine the properties of waves, along with experimenting with how treating particles as waves can help us with some otherwise impossible physics conundrums. | Skill: Handiness | Class:1:30pm – 2:55pm Tues, Thurs |
Coursework: Give a Presentation! | Daily Task: Homework |
Black Holes and Beyond
Description: As scholars of science, we always feel the urge to push beyond our current limits of knowledge. There is perhaps no greater challenge for physicists that to understand what happens to our studied atomic truths as we approach extreme phenomena - like black holes - or if there exists a different set of physics inside or beyond the black hole itself. | Skill: Rocket Science | Class:1:30pm – 2:55pm Mon, Wed, Fri |
Coursework: Take Final Exam! | Daily Task: Homework |
Orbits and Other Benefits of Gravity
Description: While most gravitational calculation on this planet is trivial, one of the central forces of understanding the ways celestial bodies work becomes much more important out in space. This course studies how gravity shaped the current state of the universe and how, when we understand its properties, we can use it for travel or prediction. | Skill: Rocket Science | Class:11:00am – 12:25pm Tues, Thurs |
