Applied Physics Syllabus

This document outlines the syllabus for the Applied Physics -1 course, which covers various topics in optics, electricity and magnetism, thermoelectricity, X-rays, and ultrasonics. It allocates 100 marks for theory and 50 marks for practical exams/tests/vivas. The optics section covers interference, diffraction, polarization, and applications. Electricity and magnetism discusses magnetic fields, forces, induction and related laws. Thermoelectricity examines Seebeck effect and applications. Ultrasonics explores production, properties and uses of ultrasonic waves. X-rays covers discovery, properties, and photoelectric effect. Practicals apply concepts from the syllabus. Suggested textbooks are also provided.
