PHYS 183 - General Physics III with Laboratory

Description:
An integrated experimental and analytical investigation of topics in electricity and magnetism. This integrated lecture/laboratory course includes the analysis of physical systems using algebra, trigonometry, and calculus along with inquiry-based activities and experimental investigation. Formerly PHYS 213, students may not receive credit for both.

Prerequisites:
Prerequisite: PHYS 181 and MATH 173. Corequisite: MATH 173.

Credits: (5)

Learner Outcomes:
Upon successful completion of this course, the student will be able to:

Correctly describe and explain key physics topics in electricity and magnetism as well as key components of those main concepts.
Demonstrate an ability to solve problems in kinematics and dynamics using the appropriate physical principles and techniques.
Demonstrate enhanced quantitative reasoning skills and mathematical analysis skills.
Demonstrate an ability to properly analyze and interpret data and experimental uncertainty in order to make meaningful comparisons between experimental measurements or observation and theory.
