PHYS103 Basic Physics II

PHYS 103: Basic Physics II is an algebra-based survey of the basics of electromagnetism and modern physics. This course is suitable for those pursuing studies in the life sciences. Electricity and magnetism form the basis for all modern electrical devices we utilize today and design for the future. We first study electrostatics of particles and magnetic fields. Then we investigate circuits involving resistors and capacitors. Finally we look at life science applicable topics in physics such as electromagnetic waves, sound, and nuclear physics.
