Outline of Topics for University Physics II (Fall 2001)

The information below defines the core content of the course in terms of sections of each chapter in Halliday, Resnick & Walker (6th edition). In some instances, additional material or alternative treatments will be covered in class. (If an alternative approach is covered in class, the corresponding section in the text may or may not be listed below, depending on whether or not it offers useful supplementary information.) If your version of the textbook stops at the end of Chapter 38 (Relativity), that is not a problem — in other words, either the Regular Edition OR the Extended Edition may be used for this course.

Sections listed in Boldface contain the quantitative core upon which the homework and test problems will be based. Sections listed in italic font contain more qualitative background material that may be tested in a quiz.
