Aims |
Introduction to the basic principles of electricity and magnetism, to the physics of wave phenomena, and to the laws of optics ; of their primary physical meaning and consequences ; and of their actual implementation through both the appropriate mathematical tools, and the physics concepts acquired in the course PHY 1111, General Physics 1, which is the prerequisite to the present one. To develop experience in model building of realistic systems within the framework of physical phenomena of electricity and magnetism, of waves, and of optics, in combination with actual experimental demonstrations and laboratory practicals. Together with PHY 1111, this course provides a coherent curriculum, to be completed with the course PHY 1211, General Physics 3 (second year bachelor's degree).
