 Important Note to all students:

The Book we use is Serway, Physics for Scientists and Engineers, 7th edition.

Objectives of the course:

 Students will be able to:

A.  Understand the underlying principles of thermodynamics, electricity, magnetism and electromagnetism.

B.  Apply these principles using methods of vector-calculus where applicable.

C.  Have a fundamental understanding of the roles of thermodynamics and electromagnetism in our universe and environment.
