i. Understanding the basic law of the physics on the electricity and magnetism.
ii. enable to solve specific electrical and magnetic problems.
iii. Understanding the relationship between electromagnetism and phenomena around us.
iv: To acquire the skills and attitude to apply the knowledge of electromagnetics to daily life.
Outline:
The purpose of the class are (I) to understand the basic laws of the electric and magnetic physics that are important to biological and chemical reaction. (II) to acquire the abilities to observe and analyzed various things from physical point of views.
Style:
This class will be conducted as a lecture. Exercises and experiments will be conducted as appropriate to deepen understanding, and report assignments will be assigned. This class progress basically follows the textbook, but more advanced content is included as appropriate. Physics is difficult to understand just by listening to lectures, so it is necessary to think and calculate for student himself. It is also important to be interested in and observe the phenomena around us, as learning about familiar phenomena and the principles of the devices we use on a daily basis leads to understanding.
Notice:
Evaluation will be based on 45% midterm exam, 45% final exam, and 10% report. A score of 60 or above is considered passing; those scoring less than 60 will be retaken. Prepare for the next class and understand the meanings of technical terms.
