    Titled (a) Applications of Mathematics to the Physical Sciences Note.

    Mathematics 201 (a and b) is the first of three courses (201, 301, 401), designed to show the interplay between mathematics and science; each course is a study of the application of mathematical ideas and techniques to the sciences and the influence of physical problems on the formulation of mathematical concepts. In Mathematics 201 (a) calculus is applied to an examination of the basic concepts of Newtonian mechanics, planetary motion, rocket flight and related topics; vectors, tensors and groups are given added meaning through a discussion of various physical laws and crystalline structure. 2 hours lectures, Fall term, Prerequisite: M. 130, Phys. 131 or equivalents.

    Math. 201, 301, 401, 402 may not be counted as Mathematics credits but may be counted as elective credits.
