This course is essentially two half-courses extending the first semesters of upper-division classical mechanics (physics 110) and thermodynamics and statistical mechanics (physics 124).
- This course will meet synchronously on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from 10 to 10:50 am.
- There are two required textbooks for this course:
- “Classical Mechanics” by John R. Taylor, and
- “Introduction to Thermal Physics” by Daniel V. Schroeder.
