physics 2213

<p>what is this class about?
is it just Electricity and Magnetism?</p>

<p>It starts with a brief unit on thermodynamics and heat, and then you progress into electricity and magnetism. The course ends with a short segment on electromagnetic waves. Easy class if you’ve taken AP Physics C.</p>

<p>^They sometimes do the thermo last, but yes that’s the material.</p>

<p>so would you recommend that i skip it if i get the credit for ap physics C?
im kinda worried because i do not remember much thermo at all from physics B</p>

<p>thermo is by far the easier part of 2213…</p>

<p>take physics 2217</p>

<p>Can’t believe they take a 4/5 for mechanics, but only a 5 for e&m. Of course I get a 5mech and 4e&m.</p>

<p>2213 material is most of the hardest stuff you learn in AP Physics, so they want to make sure you know your stuff.</p>

<p>alright…
so should i skip or take this class?</p>

<p>Skip and take 2217.</p>

<p>unless you’re an aep major, skip it and don’t take 2217 either</p>

<p>if you are an aep major skip it and take 2217 instead</p>

<p>what is aep?
sorry for my shallowness ha.</p>

<p>applied engineering physics</p>

<p>oh ok.
since im not aep major, which physics should i take then?</p>

<p>None of them. You need more math courses before you can take the next one.</p>

<p>what major are you?</p>

<p>but probably none of them, though tbh you don’t really need the required differential for 2214 since you basically just guess the correct solution to all the differential equations since they’re all pretty much the same form.</p>

<p>Yeah, I took 2214 without the diffeq prerequisite, but honestly, unless you really want to get ahead to double major or graduate early, there’s no point in going that far. 2214 made a lot more sense after taking diffeq.</p>

<p>i actually wanna try to graduate early. haha.
and im thinking majoring in mech or civil.
it might change though.</p>

<p>take this instead of a physics course</p>
