Physics

[PHYS-006N]

6N. Introductory Physics III Laboratory (Take-Home Section)

Instructor: Fred Kuttner

Course Description:

A knowledge of basic practical electronics is of tremendous use to anyone contemplating working in the sciences or anyone who wants to know a little about what is going on inside his/her radio, TV, computer, cell phone, PDA, etc., etc.

Get a head start on this knowledge with a take home lab section of Physics 6N to accompany Physics 6C. Working in pairs, you will build simple electronic equipment on your own time (the time that you would have been in lab) to demonstrate the basic laws of electricity and magnetism—from electric and magnetic forces through duplicating the classic Hertz experiment on the generation and detection of electromagnetic radiation.

All required equipment, parts, and tools will be provided.

So sign up for Physics 6N, and be prepared for a great experience!
