KING FAHD UNIVERSITY OF
PETROLEUM AND MINERALS
DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICS
Physics 102 - General Physics II - Fall Session 2003 - 2004
(Term 031)
Course Schedule, Coordination and Grading Policy
1) Course Description (Undergraduate
bulletin 1997-98)
A
continuation of Physics 101. Topics covered
include: Wave motion; Sound; Temperature; First and second laws of
thermodynamics; Kinetic theory of gasses; Coulomb's law; Electric field; Gauss'
law; Electric potential; Capacitors and dielectrics; Circuits; The magnetic
field; Faraday's law; Ampere's law.
2) Pre-requisite (Math 101) or Co-requisite
(Math 102)
3) Textbook: "Fundamentals of
Physics", by Halliday, Resnick and
4)
Method: The
course material will be presented in: lectures
(3 hrs/week), lab work (3 hrs/week) and problem-solving techniques will be shown in recitations (1 hr/week). Attendance in both lectures and recitations is compulsory.
5) Grading Policy
(A) Course grade: The course grade will be
evaluated as follows:
%age
*1000-P Syst. Grades
Class-work 10% 100 A+
³ 80 53
£ C < 60
Laboratory 20% 200 77
£ A < 80 47 £ D+ < 53
First major exam 20% 200 73
£ B+ < 77 41 £ D < 47
Second major exam 20% 200 67
£ B < 73 F < 41
Final exam 30% 300 60
£ C+ < 67
Total 100% 1000
*Based on the 1000-point system for the whole course, the
class work grade will be assigned 100 points, Lab work 200 points, etc.
(B)
Class-work (with average score 6.0/10) shall comprise of:
Ø
A minimum of 5 quizzes (no quizzes in
the last week of the classes).
Ø
Homework problems are
assigned from the textbook (exercises & problems) but will not be
collected. Solutions to the homework
problems will be posted on the Physics 102 notice board after completion of the
corresponding chapter.
(C) Laboratory
work (with
average score 14/20)
The lab work score will be based on
any or a combination of the lab reports, lab quizzes, lab exams,
... etc. as chosen by the lab instructor. Lab sessions will start on the
second week of the classes, i.e.
(D) Major and final examinations
The major
exams and the final exam will be of multiple-choice
type. The exams are scheduled as follows:
First major exam
Second
Major Exam
Final Exam Saturday,
10? January 2003 (Chapters
17 - 31)
6) Policy on make-up exams
a) If you
miss a major or final exam, you should go and see the Coordinator with your official excuse within three days after the exam.
b) Only
official excuses are accepted. Personal excuses are not allowed.
c) If you attend the exam, you cannot have a make-up exam.
d)
If you miss the exam
without a valid excuse, you get a ZERO score
for that exam.
e)
The make-up will be
given once, and no make-up for the final exam.
7) Attendance:
Attendance will be enforced
and evaluated according to current university regulations. A DN grade will be given to any student
exceeding 12 absences (LLF + Rec.) without official excuses and/or three
absences in laboratory experiments. Any student in possession of an
excuse for officially authorized absence must present this excuse to his
instructor no later than one week following his resumption of class attendance.
Only those
students who have 5 absences, or less, in the whole semester shall be promoted
to higher grade if they reach the borderline between two letter grades (for
example F to D or B to B+ etc.).
"All of physics is
either impossible or trivial. It is impossible until you understand it, and
then it becomes trivial." Ernest Rutherford
