Physics I (Lecture): Mechanics, Elasticity, Fluids, and Diffusion
Kelly A. Miller PhD, Senior Lecturer on Applied Physics, Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences
This course is an introduction to classical mechanics, with special emphasis on the motion in fluids of biological objects, from proteins to people. Topics covered include momentum and energy conservation, kinematics, Newton's laws of motion, oscillations, elasticity, fluids, random walks, and diffusion. Examples and problem set questions are drawn from the life sciences and medicine. This course does not include a lab; students who need a physics lab should enroll concurrently in PHYS E-1axl.
Prerequisites: Students should have a firm foundation in algebra, geometry, and trigonometry. Although we discuss some elementary concepts of calculus in class, we do not expect students to use calculus on homework or examinations.
