PHYS 2220 - Physics/Scientists EngineersII

Institution:

Utah Tech University

Subject:

Physics

Description:

Second course in a two-semester sequence required for students majoring in physical science, engineering, and some biological/plant sciences. Covers basic principles of physics, emphasizing electricity and magnetism; optics, and relativity with the objective of developing students' capacities to analyze problems in physics and to express solutions in mathematical form utilizing mathematics up to and including calculus. Successful completion of this series satisfies Physics requirements for Physical Science and Engineering. Inclusive Access Course Material (electronic book) fees may apply, see Fees tab under each course section for details. **COURSE LEARNING OUTCOMES (CLOs) At the successful conclusion of this course, students will be able to: 1. Analyze waves and optics, the electric charge and Coulomb's law, the electric field, Gauss' law, current and conductivity, electric potential, circuits, the magnetic field, Faraday's law of induction, Maxwell's equations, and electromagnetic waves. 2. Solve physical and mathematical problems relating to these subjects utilizing the mathematical concepts of algebra, trigonometry, and calculus evaluated by performance on homework assignments and examinations.
