| Course Objectives |
The course aims to motivate students to look into the material world through the prism of laws of physics, to make them curious about them and to learn how to analyze physical phenomena by using mathematical tools and physical theories. |

| Learning Outcomes |
After successful completion of the course, the student will be able to: |
- Analyze and interpret 1D and 2D kinematics problems that include free fall, projectile motion, relative motion and uniform circular motion by using motion diagrams, vector representation of motion, explicit problem-solving strategy for kinematic problems.
- Solve dynamics problems in 1D and 2D by applying Newtons' Laws and conservation laws (energy and momentum).
- Define Newtons’ Laws, work, energy, momentum and impulse, and explain their relationship to motion.
- Perform basic analysis of oscillating systems.
- Define basic properties of solids, liquids and gases.
- Use ideal gas law.
- Solve problems that involves energy transfers by heat and work by using First Law of Thermodynamics.
