General Physics II
Mock Exam
Course Introduction
General Physics II is a continuation of the foundational principles explored in introductory physics, focusing on electricity, magnetism, optics, and modern physics concepts. The course covers topics such as electric fields and potentials, circuits, magnetic fields, electromagnetic induction, and the behavior of light through reflection, refraction, and diffraction. Additionally, it introduces fundamental ideas in quantum mechanics and atomic physics. Through lectures, laboratory experiments, and problem-solving sessions, students develop analytical and practical skills essential for understanding and applying the physical laws governing electromagnetic phenomena and light.
