Physics. Physics is concerned with the nature and properties of matter and energy. Geologists must understand the underlying physical principles of gravity, kinetic energy, friction, strain, magnetism, refraction, force, and convection, for example, to fully grasp the materials, structure, and processes they study. These competencies are often taught as part of a two-semester Physics sequence for majors. Geology students should master physics competencies at a science-major level. • Demonstrating how forces cause a change in motion. • Describing Xxxxxx’x three laws of motion and law of universal gravitation. • Demonstrating understanding on impulse and momentum. • Describing the conservation of momentum. • Explaining how friction affects the changes of motion. • Demonstrating how equilibrium is achieved. • Locating the center of gravity of an object. • Explaining the different conditions for equilibrium. • Describing the laws governing planetary motion. • Differentiating between mass and weight. • Explaining the concepts of stress and strain, pressure and Archimedes principle. • Explaining the relationship between force, work, power and energy. • Describing the laws governing the conservation of energy. • Describing the nature of waves as energy carriers and the wave properties of reflection, refraction, diffraction and interference. • Explaining how sound waves are produced, transmitted and propagated. • Describing the laws of thermodynamics. • Applying the above-mentioned competencies in a collaborative laboratory environment. • Explaining how electric charges interact. • Describing the concept of electric field. • Differentiating between current, voltage and resistance. • Describing ohm’s law. • Explain the nature of magnetism. • Describing the contributions of Xxxxxxx and Xxxxxxx to electromagnetic theory. • Describing the structure and function of simple integrated circuits. • Appreciating the properties of electromagnetic waves and explaining how they are produced, transmitted and used. • Applying the above-mentioned competencies in a collaborative laboratory environment. The reader is referred to the Pennsylvania Statewide Program-to-Program Articulation Agreement in Physics for more detailed descriptions of competencies.
