Understanding the Structure of Matter: An Interactive Physics Course Guide

This course emphasizes the interactive learning experience in understanding the structure of matter. Students are encouraged to communicate regularly via email or phone, especially if they expect to miss class. The course materials, including PowerPoint slides and homework solutions, are accessible online for frequent reference. A Help Center will be available for additional support. Engaging with problem-solving throughout the week is essential for success. Topics include individual atoms, states of matter, mass, weight, and the properties of matter.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Physics 110 • Hope to have lots of interaction both in and out of class • I’m almost always available – e-mail, phone, or just come by • If you are sick or expect to miss class, drop me an e-mail • Everyone can do really well but you will need to put in a good and consistent effort • Check out the course web site – bookmark it and use it often – powerpoint slides posted too – HW solutions on Nexus course site – Lab handouts all posted • Help Center will be set up next week Tu/Th 7 – 10 PM • Remember 4th hour of course – I will (and you should) spread out problem solving all week

  4. Chapter 1 • An overview of the Structure of Matter • Introduce matter (mass)

  5. Individual silicon atoms Atoms Composition Size States of matter Fluorescence image of human epithelial cells Red= actin; green = microtubules, blue = DNA

  6. Mass, weight • Mass – kg or amu (dalton) = 1.66 x 10-27 kg • Density – mass/volume – intrinsic property • Calculate spacing of atoms from density and atomic weight • All atoms are about the same size!
