Credits: 4
This is the second course in the two-semester, algebra-based introductory physics sequence. Topics include: Oscillatory systems, waves, and sound; properties of light, geometrical optics, and physical optics; fundamental ideas of electricity and magnetism; and circuits and circuit analysis. The laboratory component of the course (PHY-1005) is aimed at developing data collection and analysis skills through a series of experiments in oscillations, light, electromagnetism, and circuits. The laboratory must be enrolled in separately.
