MODERN PHYSICS
Course Number : Phys 13Credit : 3 UnitsInstructors Name : Reynaldo M. Nogodula
Semester/School Year : 2ndSemester SY 2013-2014Pre-requisite/s : (3rdYear Standing)
Course Descript ion: This course is a continuation of the classical physics. Modern Physics providesstudents with a clear and logical presentation of the basic concepts and principles of physics. It alsostrengthens an understanding of the concepts and principles through a broad range of interestingapplications to the real world. It emphasizes the study on selected topics like physical optics, relativity,quantum physics, atomic physics, and nuclear physics.
General purpose/rationale for the course At the end of the course, the students shall be able to:1. Demonstrate an understanding of the general principles of physics;2. Explain the relationship of physics in general and specific to the rest of the sciences;3. Demonstrate the ability to think critically and make reasonable judgments by acquiring, analyzing, combining, and evaluating quantitative and non-quantitative information;4. To learn some methods in physical science using mathematical tools;5. Demonstrate effective communication through writing and speaking; and6. Demonstrate effective interpersonal skills.

FINAL EXAMINATION
21 March 2014
Course Methodology: Lectures, Brainstorming, Discussion, Reporting, Boardworks/Exercises
General Requirements: Long/Term Exams, Quizzes, Class Discussions/Recitations,Scientific Reading Reports, Assignments, Projects and otherClass Activities.
Classroom Policies Specific to the Course:1. Classroom attendance is an integral part of the education experience; therefore, it is the responsibility of
the student to attend class. Attendance will be taken every meeting through the signing of a roster.2. Make-up examinations will only be allowed for the final term coverage and for a valid reason. Occasional
quizzes, either announced or impromptu, may be given in class. There will be no make-up quizzes to begiven in this course.
3. Extension and late submission of outputs will only be considered if they are made in writing to the lecturerat least 7 days before the due date. Generally, no extension will be given for the final assignment. Pleasecontact your lecturer if there is a problem.
NOTE: Should work be submitted after the due date without written approval for an extension, it will incur apenaltyof a 5% deductionfrom the grade for every 2 daysit is late.
Should the work be assessed as being close to a pass grade, but the standard has not quite been reached,the opportunity to re-submit may be offered by the lecturer.
4. Cheating is a serious offense. If you cheat on any quiz, assignment or examination, the minimum penaltyis a grade of zero for that work. Your conduct may also be referred to the Office of the Student Services.
5. Students are encouraged to work together in the exchange of ideas and in general discussion of theirassignments and exercises. Thus, all data may be obtained on a group basis. However, it is expected that

the work of analyzing data and writing reports will be done individually. In the event that it is clear thatreports or data have been copied from another student, both students will receive a mark of zero on thatexamination, test, report or assignment.
6. Cell phones must be turned off or switched to silent mode before entering the classroom or laboratoryroom.
Friendly Advice:Study regularly. If you fall behind, you cannot catch up. The course cannot be mastered in the lasttwo weeks of the semester. In addition to attending lecture, PROBLEM SOLVING is an extremely important studyaid. Working problems should be your primary study activity. Furthermore, physics is a problem solving discipline.
Your conscientious effort to solve as many as possible of the problems will, therefore, not only reinforce the materialthat you are learning, but also teach you the habits of a problem-solving professional in the future.
Grading System:Lecture:
Long Examinations 40%
Quizzes, Assignments, Exercise/s 30%
Projects and Other classroom activities, e.g. Term paper/s, Journal/s 20%
