PHYS 481 Physics Problem Solving (1)

Physicists are problem solvers. Often, a full solution to a system is unnecessary to grasp the central elements of a problem. This course utilizes the basic tools of a symmetry, limiting cases, scaling, and dimensional analysis to engage in problem solving exercises where speed is more important than a closed-form solution.
Prerequisite(s): PHYS 370  or ASTR 377  
Course Frequency: Occasional
