PHYS222Y

This accompanying laboratory course teaches students experimental and computational techniques used to study electricity and magnetism, continuing to develop lab and programming skills introduced in PHYS 221Y. Emphasis is given to setting up and using computational models based on fundamental physics principles and on collecting, analyzing, and presenting data gathered using basic laboratory equipment. Topics include visualizing electric and magnetic fields, the motion of charged particles, calculating electric potentials and fields using superposition, basic circuits, induction, and elementary optics.
