For Undergraduates and Graduates.

Physics C1: General Physics, Selected Topics: Physics B1, and Mathematics
A1, or A2, or the equivalent, prerequisite.—The work in the class-room
emphasizes the general principles of dynamics and their application to
physical problems, special attention being given to the properties of matter
and thermodynamics. The laboratory work develops the basic principles of
accurate measurement. Laboratory work six hours per week. Hours by
appointment. Rouss Physical Laboratory. Adjunct Professor Sparrow.

Physics C2: Electricity and Optics: Physics B1, with the addition of
either Physics C1, Mathematics B2, or B3, or the equivalent, prerequisite.—
Electricity is given during the first half-year, Optics during the second.
The elements of the classical mathematical theory and outlines of important
modern conceptions are given in the lectures. In the laboratory,
especial attention is paid to methods of measurement and studies of important
phenomena and principles. Laboratory work, four to six hours
per week. Hours by appointment. Rouss Physical Laboratory. Associate
Professor Hoxton.
