PHYS212 — Physics 2 for Scientists and Engineers
Add to Personal Bookmarks Number of Physics 2 for Scientists and Engineers is the second semester of a three-semester calculus-based physics course. The course will enable the student to solve problems, using calculus methods when applicable, for the major concepts in physics to include: kinetic theory, heat and thermodynamics, electrostatics, electricity through the fundamentals of DC and AC circuits, magnetic and induction, and EM waves. The student will interpret and apply the experimental laws and fundamental principles of physics to describe the behavior of the physical world. In the laboratory, the student will develop the ability to collect, appraise, use, and interpret data in order to express mathematically and/or explain the physical phenomena observed. Advanced Placement exam (Physics C- Electricity and Magnetism with a score of 4 or 5) accepted. (Fall) Three hours lecture each week. Three hours laboratory each week. Four Credits. Four billable hours. Course
Prerequisites: PHYS111, MATH136
