    What are the challenges of taking a second-year intro modern physics course?

    Modern physics is a lot to do with QM and particle physics and the such. I can't speak for your advisors, but if their anything like my colleges, they don't have a clue about the program requirements. Best to stick to any advice and recommendations BY the professors and instructors that teach...

    What are the challenges of taking a second-year intro modern physics course?

    If you don't have the required math under your belt then how were you allowed to enroll in it to begin with? Prereq's should have prevented you from enrolling to begin with. The mathematics in modern physics isn't that bad really. You have to get used to using complex numbers a bit, but...

    What are the challenges of taking a second-year intro modern physics course?

    Why not just stick with modern physics and do some "private study" in modern physics?

    Dependent vs. Indepenent sources?

    So then will it be appropriate to say then that since dependent sources are by definition reactive components, that even if there controlling elements have a zero input, by trying to measure the circuits resistance at that moment, you can't predict how the reactive components will respond by...

    Dependent vs. Indepenent sources?

    Dependent vs. Indepenent sources!??... Can anyone give any insight into why you can't treat dependent sources as open circuits (dependent current sources), and why you can't treat dependent voltage sources as short circuits (dependent voltage sources)? I understand why it is the case for...
