The course Physics 2 follows the course Physics 1 and expands the acquired knowledge in the field of electromagnetism and the basics of atomic and nuclear physics and condensed matter physics.
Credit conditions - the credit has a theoretical and practical parts. Successful passing of the theoretical part requires at most two absences from numerical exercises and it is also necessary to obtain at least 60% of points in the credit test. The test consists of 8 numerical tasks from the topics covered in the seminars. To fulfill the practical part, 100% participation in laboratory exercises and elaboration of all protocols is necessary. Protocols are graded A-F and the average grade from all protocols will be part of the overall classification of the course.
Exam conditions - the exam consists of ten questions evaluated with ten points (maximum 100 points). The questions include both numerical examples and theories covering the topics of the course. Emphasis is placed on understanding the issue and the context.
