Exam III

As you are probably aware, exam III is this Friday. There will be five problems, you must solve any two. The topics are

• ac circuits
• relativity
• induction
• Maxwell's equations / EM waves

Obviously, one of these sections will have two problems, the others a single problem. Here's what you might want to study/reread before the exam:

• ac circuits - my PH102 notes
• relativity - PH102 notes, Griffiths 12.1 (all) and 12.3.1-2
• induction - PH102 notes, Griffiths 7.2
• Maxwell - Griffiths 7.3, 8.1, 9.2.1

The corresponding example problems in Griffiths and end-of-chapter problems in my PH102 notes are particularly worth reading through.

This is assuming that you have already read the relevant homework solutions on these topics, which are also helpful. The exam problems will not be as difficult as the usual homework problems, however.
