Comment: A key thing to learn in physics is how to solve problems you have never seen before by applying a few simple principles. Most of you are getting pretty good at this, but many of you still need to work on drawing the pictures that will sometimes solve the problem for you. A sketch can help you ask yourself the questions required to address a broader, not-so-well focussed question. (Part of answering a question is to ask yourself "what question might I answer that will help me to deal with this one?".)

Official course description from the TCC Catalog

My comments on the calculus requirements for my physics courses.

My comments on the calculators you might consider using.

Note that this class has passing General Physics I with a C as a prerequisite
and that PHY 2049L must also be taken at the same time as PHY 2049.

You might look at my one-page summary of what you should still know from PHY2048.

Go to the TCC Blackboard site (or the portal)
and read the advice from last semester's students
on how to be successful in this course
