Physics 130 was a fully comprehensive course that managed to touch a lot of things that I believe I
will need moving forward. I am pursuing civil engineering bachelor’s degree and I will be able to
transfer my credits to a university and from these we shall be able to add onto as I pursue my dream
of civil engineering. I also benefited for future career in civil engineering in the topics such as heat
and thermodynamics I will be able to probably apply when planning insulation of a building and
maybe apply it in any other engineering project or structure that involves heat moderation. In the
topic of mechanics especially fluid mechanics, I was able to study a bit about pressure and how it
affects fluids. The most obvious example is that of dams and how depth of fluids increases with
depth and hence the need to counter the forces respectively. I also hope to use my knowledge of
the physics concepts I picked to better use the devices around me for example heat pumps and
refrigerators. In many cases in the daily life, I ignore the warnings on how to handle heat pumps and
refrigerators but with my new found knowledge I can follow them to ensure maximum efficiency. I
will also try to explain to the people who have less knowledge of these facts and try to make them
enjoy their lives while using these devices. I conclusion, physics 130 contained way too many
concepts that I will be able to leave with throughout life and base upon when I pursue my future
aspirations.
