If that by which it is put in motion be itself put in motion, then this also must needs be put in motion by another, and that by another again. But this cannot go on to infinity, because then there would be no first mover, and, consequently, no other mover; seeing that subsequent movers move only inasmuch as they are put in motion by the first mover; as the staff moves only because it is put in motion by the hand. Therefore it is necessary to arrive at a first mover, put in motion by no other; and this everyone understands to be God.&#8221;\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 THOMAS AQUINAS,\u00a0Summa Theologica<\/em><\/p>\n<p>This Physics course focuses on the study of motion. Thomas Aquinas states above that motion cannot occur without a mover, and that \u201cfirst mover\u201d is God. We have the wonderful opportunity to learn how the world God created operates around us by studying Physics.\u00a0 This is a college prep Physics course designed for the student who is leaning toward a college\/career experience in the Sciences. They will have completed Algebra I, Geometry, and Chemistry. The student should have had an introduction to basic Trigonometry (sine, cosine, tangent and their inverses). The student should have a knowledge of the Scientific Method and Lab Procedures. There is a heavy emphasis on Vector Analysis in both one and two dimensions. Other topics include: Newton\u2019s Laws, Gravity, Periodic Motion, Work and Energy, Waves, Optics, and Electricity.<\/p>\n<p>A typical class includes discussing the assigned reading and reviewing the assigned problems. We also perform labs to demonstrate or explain the concepts currently being studied. Students are required to come prepared for class and actively participate in working problems on the board and group lab work. Tests are given at home every two weeks and proctored by parents. <strong>A Pre-Test will be given before admittance to the class.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":13215,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"portfolio_category":[45],"portfolio_skills":[],"portfolio_tags":[],"class_list":["post-12150","avada_portfolio","type-avada_portfolio","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","portfolio_category-science"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cornerstonetutorial.org\/cst2017\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/avada_portfolio\/12150","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cornerstonetutorial.org\/cst2017\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/avada_portfolio"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cornerstonetutorial.org\/cst2017\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/avada_portfolio"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cornerstonetutorial.org\/cst2017\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cornerstonetutorial.org\/cst2017\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12150"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/cornerstonetutorial.org\/cst2017\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/avada_portfolio\/12150\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13216,"href":"https:\/\/cornerstonetutorial.org\/cst2017\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/avada_portfolio\/12150\/revisions\/13216"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cornerstonetutorial.org\/cst2017\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13215"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cornerstonetutorial.org\/cst2017\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12150"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"portfolio_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cornerstonetutorial.org\/cst2017\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio_category?post=12150"},{"taxonomy":"portfolio_skills","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cornerstonetutorial.org\/cst2017\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio_skills?post=12150"},{"taxonomy":"portfolio_tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cornerstonetutorial.org\/cst2017\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio_tags?post=12150"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
