Welcome to Physics 5B, 2015!
Please participate in the review session poll.—5:19PM, Feb 05, 2015
Some potentially useful information on the upcoming midterm is posted in Homework+. By the way, I know that I promised to give you report on your progress—I am still working on distilling database from the forum site, and I will be able to do so in a few days. Sorry about not being able to get the reports out yet.—12:50PM, Feb 05, 2015
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.
