Description
Provides instruction, review, practice and evaluation in mathematics skills, specifically relevant to radiation therapy technology and the operation of a scientific calculator. Basic concepts of physics that are needed in preparation for subsequent radiation physics courses are explored, learned and developed. At the conclusion of this course the student will: perform basic arithmetic operations and use negative numbers; formulate and evaluate ratios; translate verbal statement into algebraic expressions; solve simple linear equations; linearly interpolate; describe the nature of graphs of exponential expressions; analyze and state the fundamental qualities of physics; state nuclear structure; and explain electromagnetic radiation and the duel nature of the photon.
Requisite Course(s): ANA101 (prior to or concurrent with course)
