PHY131 at Stony Brook University is the first half of a first year course designed with applications to the engineering and mathematical

sciences with the scientist-bound student in mind.  The course is intensive, fast-paced, challenging and requires a great deal of thinking

in tandem with procedures students need to apply to solve physics problems. While the course requires first semester calculus as a co-

requisite, depending upon the instructor, calculus as it applies to the physics at hand will be gradually introduced and taught as needed.

 Students must be highly adept with 9th and 10th grade algebra and trigonometry.  Topics include the following;
