Eðli3RA05 Physics – Electricity and magnetism

In this course, there are four lessons per week. The course is designed for students majoring in physics, usually those intending to study engineering or physics at university. Topics include electric forces and electric fields, electric potential and energy; current, resistance and Ohm’s and Kirchhoff’s laws for circuits; capacitors, RC-circuits; magnetic fields and magnetic forces on moving charges and conductors, Biot-Savart law and magnetic fields around straight conductors and simple geometries, Faraday’s law of induction and Lenz’ law.

The final grade is based on lab work and a student produced notebook, midterms and in-class performance (30% total) and a 2-hour final exam (70%).
