This is the second course in the two-semester, calculus-based, general physics sequence. In this course we cover thermodynamics, the fundamental ideas of electricity and magnetism, the  influence of electromagnetic fields on particles, Maxwell’s equations, circuits and circuit analysis, light, and geometric and physical optics. The laboratory component of the course (PHY 1015) is aimed at developing data collection and analysis skills through a series of experiments in thermodynamics, electromagnetism, and optics. The laboratory must be enrolled in separately.
