Objectives for PHY 222 University Physics II

This course is a continuation of calculus based treatment of the following topics; thermodynamics, kinetic theory of gases, electricity and magnetism, including electrostatics, dielectrics, electric circuits, magnetic fields, and induction phenomena. The prerequisites are PHY 221 and MAT 141. The general objectives are to promote an interest in physics, to enable the student to more thoroughly understand the concepts of physics in general, to enable the student to apply knowledge to a specific problem in a systematic manner, and to enable the student to develop skill in handling apparatus and to practice the procedures of making accurate measurements and presenting results in a scientific report. Specific objectives are upon successful completion of this course, the student will be able to solve problems or answer questions dealing with and to understand the concepts of
