What is Physics 2000. Calculus 2000 parts I, II about?
ABOUT THE COURSEPhysics2000 is a college level introductory physics course that begins with special relativity, ends with quantum mechanics, and in-between covers the usual topics with a 20th century focus. This approach eliminates the great divide between classical and modern physics.BEGIN WITH SPECIAL RELATIVITY?Introducing Einstein's special relativity in Chapter 1means that you cannot rely on the usual mathematical techniques because no mathematics has been discussed yet. You have no choice but to focus on the physical ideas like the behavior of clocks and measurements of distance. The result is that you remove the mathematical fear factor usually associated with the subject. The only mathematics you need is the Pythagorean theorem.Compare this with the standard approachthat introduces special relativity after discussing Maxwell's equations. You have just introduced the students to integral-differential equations, you hit them with complex historical arguments about the search for ether, and then present some really weird physics. Fortunately the course is about over, so that you do not have to expect the students to get it.END WITH QUANTUM MECHANICS?Once you have finished with
