spContent=Welcome to College Physics II !
Physics is one of the most significant natural science which is integrated into daily life and encompasses tremendously different time and space scales from the fundamental particles to galaxies, from apparent phenomena to deep mechanism. Physics is everywhere. Following us, you will understand oscillations, mechanical waves that travel within some media, optics such as the nature of light, interference and diffraction, as well as modern physics in which you will explore the particle-like aspect of light, wave-like nature of matter and a wide variety of otherwise puzzling observations.

课程概述
College Physics is a fundamental and compulsory course for students majoring in science and engineering. The study of physics is important because physics is one of the most fundamental of the sciences. Scientists of all disciplines make use of the ideas of physics, including chemists who study the structure of molecules, paleontologists who try to reconstruct how dinosaurs walked, and climatologists who study how human activities affect the atmosphere and oceans. Physics is also the foundation of all engineering and technology. No scientist could develop a laser without first understanding the theory of stimulated emission of radiation.
The study of physics is also an adventure. You will find it challenging, sometimes frustrating, occasionally painful, and often richly rewarding and satisfying. It will appeal to your sense of beauty as well as to your rational intelligence. If you've ever wondered why the sky is blue, how radio waves can travel through empty space, why soapy bubbles show vibrant colors,or why atoms emit light, you can find the answers by using fundamental physics. Above all, you will come to see physics as a towering achievement of the human intellect in its quest to understand our world and ourselves. Mastering the knowledge and techniques in physics, you will be capable of adopting the critical thinking, as we performed in this course, to resolve problems in the future academic and career life.
The course College Physics II includes Periodic Motion, Waves, Optics and Modern Physics.
授课目标
