What are the responsibilities and job description for the Physics Instructor/ Professor position at Trigent Solutions Inc.?
Title: Physics Instructor/ Professor
Duration: Temporary-Part Time
Client: Naval Postgraduate School
Location: Onsite, Monterey, California
This position is for teaching one section of PH1121 (Mechanics) and one section of PH1322 (Electromagnetism) as resident courses in the Academic Year 2025, Quarter 2, from (06 January – 22 March 2024). The period of performance for the instructor will commence two weeks earlier (23 December 2024 through 29 March 2025). These two courses will be offered back-to-back in an accelerated mode with PH1121 taught during the first half of the quarter and PH1322 during the second half of the quarter, each for roughly 5 weeks. The classes will meet for 2 hours per day, 5 days a week. In addition to class meetings, we require 2 hours of office hours daily to answer students' questions.
PH1121 Description: This course covers the fundamentals of calculus-based mechanics: Kinematics and dynamics of particles, statics of rigid bodies, work, energy, systems of particles, collisions, rotations of rigid bodies, angular momentum and torque, mechanical properties of solids, elasticity, harmonic motion, fluids. Prerequisite: A course in calculus or concurrent registration in a calculus course and approval of the instructor.
PH1322 Description: Basic electromagnetism: electric charge, electric and magnetic fields, forces on charges in fields, electric potential, Gauss's law, Ampere's law, Faraday's law, resistance, capacitance, inductance, DC and AC circuits, magnetic properties of matter, transient currents in circuits, Maxwell's equations, electromagnetic waves. PREREQUISITES: PH1121 or approval of the instructor.
The above referenced courses are in residence, to be delivered on-site at the Naval Postgraduate School located in Monterey, California.
