It begins by discussing the presence of charges in matter, its conservation and discrete properties andways that materials can be charged followed by the concept of electric field and how charges interact with each other and the dynamics ofthe charges under the influence of electrical forces. These dynamics are further probed through the concepts of electric flux, electricpotential, work done, electrical energy, electrical power, capacitors, electric current, resistance and resistivity. The laws governing theelectrical phenomena including Coulomb’s Law, Ohm;s Law and Kirchoff’s Laws are introduced and used to help discuss the electricalphenomena. In addition, the magnetic phenomena and the effect of magnetic field on charges are introduced. Then the dynamics ofcharges and the production of magnetic field by moving charges are introduced leading to the induced electromotive force in a coil and itsapplications to magnetic energy, inductors, motors, generators and its significance and applications to alternating current. The lawsinvolved such as Ampere’s Law, Faraday’s Law and Lenz’s Law are introduced to help understand magnetic phenomena. Quantummechanics is introduced through the particle properties of electromagnetic wave and the wave properties of particles by introducing theblack body radiation, the photoelectric effect, the Heisenberg uncertainty principle and the Compton effect. Finally, atomic physics throughthe nature of atom associated with photons such as the atomic models and the x-ray will be introduced and discussed. In addition, thecourse will allow students to develop their science skills through a series of laboratories (by involving the use of common scientific devicesand/or computer simulation) which incorporates investigating natural phenomena and obtain some form of laws or theory.This is a THREE credit-hour course (SLT=120 hours) and will address MOHE Learning Outcomes LO1 (Knowledge & Understanding), LO2(Practical Skills) and LO5 (Teamwork) .
