Course Code: 83012000
Course Name: General PhysicsⅡ (Electromagnetism and Optics)
Course Credit: 6 Course Duration: The Fourth Semester Teaching Object: Undergraduate Students in Applied Physics
Pre-course: Advanced Mathematics, General PhysicsⅠ
Course Director: Wu AiLing Associate Professor Philosophical Doctor
Course Introduction:
General PhysicsⅡis an element course in the scientific disciplines of physics, material physics and space science etc. The course includes two main parts, electromagnetism and optics. Electromagnetism——Introduces the basic principles of electrostatic fields, conductors and
dielectrics in electrostatic fields, constant electric currents, magnetostatics, matter in magnetic fields, electromagnetic induction, Maxwell’s equations and electromagnetic waves. Optics——Introduces
the basic theories of wave optics, interference, diffraction, polarization and propagation of light in crystals, and etc. This course will lead the students to have a good grip of the electromagnetism and optics: basic ideas, basic principles and the methods. To lay the solid foundation for the students learning in the years to come.
Course Examination:
Students’ Final Scores = Scores of Ordinary Tests * 30% + Scores of the Final Exam * 70%; Scores of ordinary tests vary according to students’ performance in attendance and homework.; The final exam. will be an close-book exam.
