Fundamentals of Physics w/ Calculus II - PHYS 212 Spring 2009 INSTRUCTOR: Andrew Ware andrew.ware@umontana.edu Office: Science Complex, Room 130, Phone: 243-6221 Office Hours: M 11am-12pm, T 2-3pm, W 3-5pm, R 10-11am (and by appointment) LECTURES: MTWR 1:10 - 2:00 PM, CHCB 131 WEBSITE: www.physics.umt.edu/phys212/ TEXTBOOK: Fundamentals of Physics, Halliday, Resnick, and Walker, 8th Ed. OPTIONAL TEXT: Quick Calculus, Kleppner and Ramsey, 2nd Ed. PREREQUISITES: Phys 211 or equivalent, and Math 152 COREQUISITES: Math 153 (Calculus II) and Phys 214 (Phys. Lab. II w/Calc.) OVERVIEW: The goal of this class is to give you a sound introduction to classical physics. This class is a continuation of Physics 211 and a good understanding of the material from the first semester will be very helpful for this semester. It is essential that you keep up from the start as the concepts in this course build on each other. TOPICS: We will cover thermodynamics, electricity, magnetism, and optics. In thermodynamics, our coverage will include heat and work, engines, entropy, and both the first and second law of thermodynamics. We will cover electric charge, electric force, electric field, electric flux, and electric potential. We will discuss magnets, magnetic force, magnetic field, and magnetic flux. We will examine capacitors, resistors, inductors, transformers and circuits. We will cover electromagnetic waves, reflection, refraction, image formation, interference, and diffraction. HOMEWORK: I will assign 10 – 20 problems per chapter to be worked out that will not be collected. If you work these problems carefully, the benefits will show on the exams. Worked out solutions for these problems will be provided on the web site. I will assign 1 to 2 problems per chapter that will be collected and graded. The grading will focus not just on obtaining the correct results but on the process used to obtain the result. Show all your work. Homework is due at 5:00 PM on the day specified when the assignment is given out and late homework will not be accepted except under extreme circumstances. Feel free to work together on the homework assignments. Start early on homework assignments. You are welcome to ask me questions concerning the homework. EXAMS: There will be four 50-minute, in-class exams on 2/12, 3/7, 4/6, and 4/30. These exams will be closed-book, closed-notes exams. You are allowed one 3”x5” note card with equations and a calculator. There will be a comprehensive, 2-hour final exam from 3:20 – 5:20 PM on Wednesday 5/9. Please do not miss any exams. Make-up exams will only be given under extreme circumstances and with advanced notice.
