Physics II with Calculus

Students examine the principles of electricity and magnetism mathematically through the formalism of Maxwell's equations. They then apply these concepts to predict behaviors of electric fields, capacitors and inductors in circuits, and electromagnetic interactions. This strong foundation extends to waves, light, and modern physics. Students apply mathematical and physical concepts to interpret and explain a range of electrical and optical systems.

Note: Students taking second year physics courses are advised to take MATH 2362, 2371, 2471, and 2475.

Prerequisite(s): A minimum "B" grade in PHYS 1101, or a minimum "C" grade in PHYS 1125; and a minimum "C-" grade in one of the following: MATH 1271, 1273 and 1283, or 1275 (MATH courses may be taken concurrently).
