Welcome to Physics 5B, 2015!
Physics 5B is now officially over, and I hope that you enjoyed it and learned some useful physics knowledge---or more importantly, learned to like to think, discuss, struggle, not give up, and figure things out. It was a pleasure to teach this course. Various information on the final exame can be found here.—1:43PM, Mar 24, 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.
