    Description
    54 hours lecture and 54 hours lab per term. This course covers electricity and magnetism, optics, special relativity, and quantum physics. The laboratory portion of the course investigates these topics both qualitatively and quantitatively, and includes the use of graphing and statistics, and propagation of errors. This is the second half of a calculus-based two-semester sequence ( PHYS 210 F and 211 F ) for students majoring in the life sciences. This course satisfies a requirement for biology majors in the UC system; the CSU system will accept either this sequence or PHYS 205 F and 206 F .
