PS 131 - Physics II

Institution:

Mitchell College

Subject:

Description:

4 credits (spring) Prerequisites: PS130. Physics II continues the process begun in PS130 with the study of electricity, magnetism, light, and optics. NOTE: This sequence of courses is designed especially to meet the needs of students wishing to transfer into engineering or physical science programs. In these fields it will fulfill the physics requirements of most fouryear institutions. Lectures, demonstrations, problem-solving sessions, and quantitative laboratory work are combined to promote thorough understanding of the subject matter with attendant emphasis on logical thinking and clear expression of ideas. These courses are not recommended for entering freshmen because a knowledge of calculus is required to comprehend the subject matter. Entering students must demonstrate proficiency in math courses MA109, MA114, and MA115, and must obtain approval of the Department Chair to register.
