PHYS 116
Fall 2016 not offered
|
| Course Cluster: Health Studies |
This course is the second term of a general physics course with calculus, recommended for students interested in majoring in the sciences. The focus is on the physics of charged particles, including an introduction to the concepts of electric and magnetic fields. Students will develop both conceptual understanding of how charged particles give rise to both electricity and magnetism and the ability to use this knowledge to quantitatively describe the behavior of these particles in a variety of contexts, including electrical devices. Through a collaborative and interactive classroom experience, students develop problem solving skills and a mathematical description of electricity and magnetism. The associated lab PHYS124 is highly recommended. |
