20410977 - PHYSICS 2 WITH LABORATORY

Students will acquire skills of electrostatics, magnetism and electromagnetism, expertise in optical physics and its application to optometric diagnostic. They will have to achieve a good level of autonomy during lab class in testing the main rules of undulatory and visual optics, in using experimental methods and in processing experimental data also using statistical and informatics supports.

Programma

1. Electricity: phenomenology, charge and Coulomb’s law, charge distributions and Gauss’ law, electric field.

2. Magnetism: electric currents, magnetic phenomena, Ampère’s law.

3. Electromagnetism: magnetic induction, Faraday-Lens’s law, eddy currents. Maxwell’s equations and electromagnetic waves.

4. Wave optics: polarisation, interference, diffraction.

5. Quantum optics: notions of quantum mechanics, photons and discrete energies, laser.

Testi Adottati

parts 1-3: J.S. Walker, Fondamenti di fisica (5A ed., Pearson)

parts 1-3: H.D. Young, R.A. Friedman, Principi di fisica, vol. 2 (Pearson)

parts 4-5: Notes made available by the teachers

Bibliografia Di Riferimento

D. Halliday, R. Resnick Fondamenti di Fisica. P. Mazzoldi, M. Nigro, C. Voci, Elementi di Fisica

Modalità Frequenza

Attendance of the lab practices is mandatory, allowing for a single absence. Attendance to the lectures is not compulsory, but recommended.

Modalità Valutazione

The evaluation of the written exam takes into account: the accuracy of the procedure and of the results of the numerical exercises; the accuracy and propriety of the answer to the open questions; The evaluation of the oral exam takes into account: the accuracy and propriety of the answers; the ability of applying concepts. The written exam can be taken in the form of two partial exams during the semester.
