| In response, I am giving some additional time '''for everyone''' (to be fair), only for this time. Part of the reason for giving additional time this timen is due to my cancellation of class on last Thursday, which may have disrupted the normal flow of things a bit.<<BR>> | * <<ln(https://griffin.ucsc.edu/forum/question/544/beat-frequency,"A special extra credit question has been posted just now")>>.

At this point, '''homework 2 must be submitted to me, by email''' (since Monday would be too late). The PDF format works the best. 1. '''The new deadline is 3 PM tomorrow (Jan 26).''' 1.

Welcome to the second part of Physics 5!
In this course, we will continue the exploration of the introductory physics. We will start with the simple harmonic oscillator. Then, we will study waves in general. This will lead to geometric optics and related topics. Lastly, we will come back to fluids and statics. If we somehow run out of time, we might leave some topics like fluids for reading only. I like to go through the simple harmonic oscillator and waves, slowly but surely, so that we cover these supremely important topics well enough.
