PHY 112 - Introduction to Electricity and Magnetism
Description
An introduction to fundamental physical principles governing electricity and magnetism, including Coulomb’s Law, electric fields and potentials, magnetic fields, circuits, and optics. Laboratory work involves scientific reasoning, mathematical models, and uncertainty analysis. These topics will be covered in more depth and with more mathematical sophistication than in PHY102. This course is designed for physical science students and forms the foundation for subsequent courses in the physics and astrophysics majors. Students cannot earn credit for both PHY 112 and PHY 102 , unless an exception is approved by the department chair. Offered every semester.
