The key takeaways are that the course covers topics in physics including vectors, kinematics, Newton's laws of motion, gravitation, and circular motion. It aims to show students the relationship between physics and other sciences as well as the social significance of physics.

The course is intended to cover review of calculus, composition and resolution of vectors, kinematics, Newton's laws of motion, gravitation, circular motion, and friction over the course of the semester.

The course objectives are for students to be able to differentiate between vectors and scalars, solve problems in kinematics, analyze projectile motion, solve problems involving equilibrium and Newton's laws, determine gravitational forces, and solve problems involving circular motion.
