The prerequisite(s) for this Teaching Unit (Unité d’enseignement – UE) for the programmes/courses that offer this Teaching Unit are specified at the end of this sheet.
To understand the time dependent electric and magnetic phenomenon. To be able to explain them thanks to the Maxwell equations. To show that the Maxwell equations also describe light as an electromagnetic wave. To compute voltages and currents in electric circuits powered with an alternate power supply. To explain and solve waves problems: interference, standing waves, polarisation, reflection, refraction, and diffraction. To use graphical method and compute mirror and lens problems. To debate and compute space-time properties in the special relativity framework, as well as the concept of mass-energy with the related relations. Be able to explain the quantification of matter. To comment the variety of nuclei, the disintegration modes, and the various applications. To compute nuclear masses, their binding energy and their radioactivity evolution.
