Course Aims

This course covers a wide scope of topics in physics including electricity, magnetism and atomic physics. Students will investigate the fundamentals of these topics and become able to apply them to solve real problems in science and engineering. This course, together with PHY1101 Introductory Classical Mechanics or PHY1201 General Physics I, equip students with a broad knowledge in general physics and the depth and coverage are sufficient for the students to pursue most of the science and engineering majors.
