Institution:

Milwaukee School of Engineering

Subject:

Description:

The first section of this course covers the principles of electricity andmagnetism. Specific topics covered include Coulomb's law, electric fields, electric potential, capacitance, simple DC circuits and Ohm's law, forces on charged particles inmagnetic fields, andmagnetic fields due to electric currents. The last section of this course covers the principles of geometric and physical optics. The laws of reflection and refraction are discussed and these laws are used to study the ways in whichmirrors and lenses can be used to formimages. Interference is discussed and applied to double slits and thin films. The associated laboratory is designed to give students direct experience with the concepts presented in lecture. The laboratory also serves to familiarize students with laboratory techniques and equipment. This course replaces PT-220. Not for credit for students who have credit for PH-230 or PT-220. Designated as laptop a course. (prereq: PH-113)
