PHYS 2217 - Physics II: Electricity and Magnetism

(crosslisted)
(also AEP 2170) (PBS)

Fall, spring. 4 credits.

Forbidden Overlap: Students may receive credit for only one course in the following group: PHYS 1102, PHYS 2208, PHYS 2213, PHYS 2217. Prerequisites: MATH 1920, MATH 2220, or MATH 2240. Vector calculus is taught in this course, but previous contact, especially with the operations grad, div, and curl, is helpful. Therefore, coregistration with MATH 1920 may be allowed subject to instructor approval. It is assumed the student has seen special relativity at the level of PHYS 1116 or is currently enrolled in PHYS 2216. Intended for students who have done very well in PHYS 1112 or PHYS 1116 and in mathematics and who desire more analytic treatment than that of PHYS 2213. Enrollment may be limited. Prospective physics majors and engineering physics majors encouraged to register.
