Applets
Chapter 1: Special Relativity
Chapter 2: Special Relativity
list of derivations done in class, examples done in class, suggested problem material
Chapter 3: Quantization
Chapter 4: Nuclear and Atomic Stuff
list of derivations done in class, examples done in class, suggested problem material
Not required for the exam, just to give you a big picture, see the forest for the trees kind of view of how prolific and hectic the early 1900's were regarding what we now consider fundamentals of modern physics
These slides cover theory knowledge and derivations that are acceptable questions for Exam 1 and the
Final. This material comes 100% from the in class lectures. See the summaries for chapters 1-2, 3-4 linked above for problem types that are fair game for the exams.
