| PHYS 252W Introductory Physics IV (Web Course) Course Description: A comprehensive study of modern physics using calculus and emphasizing concepts and problem solving. This particular course offering is intended for engineering students who have completed PHYS 142E and 241E, but is also appropriate for science majors (including physics majors) who have taken various sequences: 231-2, or 151-2 and 251, or possibly 201-2 (with instructor permission). This course serves as a technical elective for engineering students and is equivalent to the former PHYS 242E, which is no longer offered. This distance-learning course can be taken from anywhere in the world. It is structured to allow you to complete all of the assignments without traveling to Charlottesville. Although there are completion deadlines, you may work at a faster pace and complete the course in less than a semester. This distance-learning course will introduce relativity, particle and wave properties of matter, atomic structure, quantum mechanics, and the quantum mechanical model of the atom. The organization of the course is based on the textbook. The website supplements the required textbook readings. The current Web site is displayed for the fall 2002 course (held for PHYS 633, a high school physics teacher course), but it gives useful information. See http://modern.physics.virginia.edu/course/index.html Prerequisites: PHYS 142E &241E or 151-2 & 251 or 231-2 or 201-2
