PHY 3101 - Modern Physics - Fall 2018


Announcements
Aug. 22 Welcome to PHY3101! Please note the following points.
  • Read the Course overview page, which describes important aspects of the course, including lecture location/time, material covered, textbook, grading components, how we use e-Learning, test accommodations, etc.
  • Read the Programming page to learn about the programming tools you will learn in this course.
  • We will use HITT clickers as we did in Physics 1 and Physics 2. Please purchase a clicker if you do not have one already. You will need to register the clicker for this course as described on the HITT page.
  • The class schedule shows the lecture schedule, exam dates, and on-line homework due dates.
  • Please read Chapters 1 and 2.1-2.2. We have also placed some introductory materials on e-Learning under "Files-->Lecture materials", including a useful review of Physics 1&2, approximation formulas, basic formulas used in phy3101, and the first two notes on Special Relativity.
  • VERY IMPORTANT: Class email should always be addressed to phy3101 AT phys.ufl.edu and not to our home accounts. We want to keep class correspondence in a single area that is easy for both of us to find.
