Learning Outcomes
1.Demonstrate that the concepts in physics are related to experiments and that the laws of the universe can be understood by simple concepts such as force, work and energy.
2.To be able to define movements in one and two dimensions with the concept of vector and show the differences and relationships between different movements
3.To be able to explain the interactions between moving particles with the concept of momentum, to show the reasons of momentum conservation
4.Apply Newton's equations of motion to fluids
5.Relation of heat and temperature with energy and motion
