FOUN10111 World of the Electron Phys 2 10 Semester 1 Undergraduate Level 1 Jonathan Sly Unit coordinator 1 FHEQ level (Framework for Higher Education Qualifications) ' First part HE study/Bachelors ' European Credit Transfer & Accumulation System Rating : 5.0 A course which will allow students to gain essential knowledge and understanding of physical, electrical and magnetic principles   Topics:Electrostatics, electric fields, electrical potential, energy and work.Capacitors, resistors, DC circuits, electrical power.Magnetic materials, superconductivity, magnetic fields and forces, motors.Electromagnetic induction, Lenz’s law, generators and transformers.Bohr’s hydrogen atom, absorption/emission, band theory of solids, semiconductors.   The aim is to allow students to gain essential knowledge and understanding of physical, electrical and magnetic principles. By the end of this course unit a student will be able to:<ul> <li> Describe the properties and interaction of electrically charged objects and electric fields, with reference to electrostatic forces, potential, potential energy and work.</li> <li> Analyse simple DC circuits consisting of capacitors or resistors under steady state conditions.</li> <li> Contrast the properties and behaviour of the common classes of magnetic materials (including superconductors).</li> <li> Determine the characteristics of magnetic fields resulting from simple configurations of current-carrying conductors.</li> <li> Describe the behaviour of moving charges or current-carrying conductors in magnetic fields (and its technological significance).</li> <li> Explain, with examples, the consequences and implications of electromagnetic induction.</li> <li> With reference to Bohr’s atomic model, account for the emission and absorption spectra of hydrogen.</li> <li> Use the band theory of solids to explain the electronic properties of conductors, insulators and semiconductors and the role of doping in simple semiconductor devices (including the p-n junction).</li></ul>  Electrostatics, electric fields, electrical potential, energy and work.Capacitors, resistors, DC circuits, electrical power.Magnetic materials, superconductivity, magnetic fields and forces, motors.Electromagnetic induction, Lenz’s law, generators and transformers.Bohr’s hydrogen atom, absorption/emission, band theory of solids, semiconductors.  Lectures, tutorials, drop-in sessions, private study.  0 Other 20% 1 Written exam 80% <ul> <li>Formative feedback will be given during lectures, tutorials and drop-in sessions.
