For Undergraduates.
Physics B1: General Physics.—This course includes elementary
Mechanics, Sound, Heat, Electricity, Magnetism, and Light. Instruction
is given by text-books and lectures accompanied by experimental
demonstrations. In addition, recitations, solution of illustrative
problems, and written reports upon quantitative laboratory work
done by the student are required. (B. A. or B. S. credit, 6 session-hours.)
Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, 11-12. Laboratory: Monday,
Wednesday, Friday; Section I, 9-11, Section II, 3-5. Rouss Physical
Laboratory. Associate Professor
Hoxton, Adjunct Professor
Sparrow,
Mr.
Dingledine, Mr.
Emmett.
Special Preparatory Course for Medicine. Students taking this
course attend the lectures of Course B1, but the work done in the
laboratory, in recitations, and in examinations is made more elementary
in order to adapt it to students having the minimum preparation
prescribed by the Department of Medicine. The number of
hours spent in laboratory work is smaller, but more time is given
to recitations. Only students preparing to enter the Department of
Medicine will be permitted to take this course, and no B. A. or B.
S. credit will be allowed on it. Hours same as for Course B1.
Physics B2: General Physics, Selected Topics. Physics B1, and
Mathematics A1 or A2 or their equivalent prerequisite.—The work in
the class room will emphasize the great general principles of dynamics
and their application to physical problems, special attention being
given to the properties of matter. The lectures will also be coördinated
with the laboratory work in developing the basic principles of
accurate measurement. (B. A. or B. S. credit, 6 session-hours.)
Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, 9-10. Laboratory: Tuesday, Thursday,
Saturday, 10-12. Rouss Physical Laboratory. Adjunct Professor
Sparrow.
