Physics2 (Electricty and Magnetism)

Physics 2: Electricity and Magnetism is an introductory course covering the fundamental principles of electric and magnetic phenomena. Students will explore electric charges and fields, Gauss's law, electric potential, capacitance, current and resistance, DC circuits, magnetic fields, electromagnetic induction, and Maxwell's equations.

Through a combination of theoretical lectures, worked examples, and problem-solving exercises, this course builds the foundation needed for advanced studies in physics and engineering.

What you'll learn:

• Analyze electric fields and forces using Coulomb's law and Gauss's law
• Understand electric potential and energy in electric fields
• Solve DC circuit problems using Kirchhoff's laws
• Explain the origin and behavior of magnetic fields
• Apply Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction
• Connect electricity and magnetism through Maxwell's equations

Prerequisites: Physics 1 (Mechanics) and basic calculus (derivatives and integrals).
