The second semester of introductory physics for engineering majors,
presented in a student-centered, interactive studio format. Conceptual
reasoning, problem-solving, and experimentation are fully integrated. A
basic grasp of differential and integral calculus is assumed. Topics include
geometric and wave optics, electric and magnetic fields, and linear circuits.

As a University of Georgia student, you have agreed to abide by the University’s
academic honesty policy, “A Culture of Honesty,” and the Student Honor Code.
All academic work must meet the standards described in “A Culture of Honesty”
found at: www.uga.edu/honesty. Lack of knowledge of the academic honesty
policy is not a reasonable explanation for a violation. Questions related to course
assignments and the academic honesty policy should be directed to the instructor.
 No laptops, pagers, cellphones, iPads, iPods, or any other
electronic/communication devices are permitted in the classroom.
 If you are late for class, you must enter in the back of the room.
Absolutely mandatory
 Labs begin the third week of classes, Aug. 31 – Oct. 04.
 Attendance mandatory.
 Students who are not assigned a lab grade due to non-attendance will
automatically receive a failing grade (“F”) for the course.
 May be found here: http://www.physast.uga.edu/courses
Your homework assignments will be posted and automatically graded on LONCAPA*, http://spock.physast.uga.edu
*Users will be added after the drop/add period ends. After that, it will be your
responsibility to keep track of the HMWK deadlines.
In case you can’t log
into LON-CAPA:
Read the "Log-in Help" link on the main login page, and/or the "Student FAQ".
There are several possible causes outlined on those pages, including:
 Is your UGA password expired? Check to see whether you can log in to
eLC or DegreeWorks or Athena. If your password has expired, you
shouldn't be able to get to these services either.
 Have you tried quitting your browser and restarting it? Have you tried a
different browser (Chrome vs. Firefox, for example)? Have you tried a
LON-CAPA
Homework rules:
Pre-Lectures, etc.
Midterm Exams:
Midterm exam rules:
Incompletes:
different computer?
 Disabling browser add-ons and extensions sometimes helps. There are
some add-ons that don't always play well with login pages.
 No make-ups.
 Collaboration OK.
 Go to: http://www.smartphysics.com
 Enroll in: 2015FALL - DR. G - PHYS 1252: Studio Physics II for
Engineers
 There will be three (3) midterm exams on selected chapters, and one (1)
cumulative final exam.
 No make-ups or re-scheduling permitted.
 One (1) standard sheet containing physical constants and formulae only,
all handwritten. No diagrams or problem solutions allowed. You may
write on both sides.
 A simple (non-graphing, non-symbolic, non-programmable) scientific
calculator. No other electronic device(s) permitted.
 You must work individually.
I rarely assign “Incompletes.” When I do*, it is in accordance with the UGA
policy, provided all of the following applies:
 You received a non-failing grade in all attempted labs (> 70%);
 You received a non-failing grade (> 70%) on at least two midterm
exams;
 No violation of the Academic Honesty Policy took place in the course of
the semester.
*You must remove the “I’’ by the end of the semester subsequent to its assignment.
Grading policy:
Cut-offs:
5% Pre-class preparation (performed individually at home by using
SmartPhysics Website & reading Textbook)
5% In-class reading quizzes (performed individually at the beginning of
each class)
5% In-class group activities (performed with your group during class)
10% HMWK (using LON-CAPA)
15% LABS (attendance mandatory; see above for details)
15% EXAM 1 (performed individually, no re-scheduling or make-up)
15% EXAM 2 (performed individually, no re-scheduling or make-up)
15% EXAM 3 (performed individually, no re-scheduling or make-up)
15% EXAM 4 (cumulative final; replaces worst of midterm exams:
25770: Tues., Dec. 15, 12:00 - 3:00 pm
25776: Tues., Dec. 15, 3:30 - 6:30 pm)
__________________________________________________________
100% TOTAL = 5% Pre-class + 5% Quizzes + 5% Group

NOTE: No rounding; 89.99 = A-, etc.
Grades:
Your grades will be posted on eLC-New, http://elcnew.uga.edu
Read each chapter before it is discussed in class.
Attend every lecture.
Participate actively in discussions.
Re-read chapter carefully after class.
Do assigned homework.
Solve as many end-of-chapter problems as possible.
Concepts first. Do NOT plug-and-chug.
Use a buddy system: find a friend with whom to discuss physics.
Think about physics on a regular basis.
If everything fails, consider dropping the class before the deadline and retaking it at a later time.
Tutors are available either for free through the UGA Tutoring Program at
Tutors:
Milledge Hall, http://tutor.uga.edu, or for pay through the Physics Department,
http://www.physast.uga.edu/tutors.
NOTE: In physics, learning can be frustrating and nonlinear. Often you have to work for a long time
(many days and even weeks) without feeling that you are making much progress. Then, suddenly,
everything falls into place and it all makes sense. But until the “click,” you can’t be sure how much time
you need to “get it” and it’s difficult to plan…

As you solve a physics problem, stop and ask yourself:
What (exactly) are you doing? Why are you doing it? How does it help you?
