Engineering Physics

The module is an introduction to the fundamentals of Newtonian Physics. Topics covered include kinematics, Newtonian mechanics, energy principles, impulse and collisions and dynamics of rotational motion. This module lays the conceptual foundation for the more specialised modules in Fluid Mechanics and Soil Mechanics encountered in Year 1. The module also employs Pearson MasteringPhysicsTM for administering online tutorials. The system tracks a student’s performance and activity in real-time and personalises content to reinforce concepts that target each student's particular strengths and weaknesses.
