I took the first term of a Foundations of Physics sequence (251) last year, and understood most of the material fairly well. It was calculus based Newtonian mechanics; units and vectors; one-dimensional motion; Newton’s laws; work and energy; momentum and collisions. Since it's been a year though, and I was considering taking 252, which is about electricity and magnetism; charge and electric field; electric potential; circuits; magnetic field; inductance, I wasn't sure if I would be prepared enough for the class. I'm in vector/multi-var. calculus right now, so the math involved won't be an issue, I'm just more concerned about any physics concepts from 251 that might be needed to understand the material in 252. If anyone has any suggestions or thoughts on how I might want to prepare, I would greatly appreciate it.
