PHYS 113

The complexity of life can be described, at its underlying level, with physics. In this introductory course the use of: waves, superposition, acoustics, light, refraction, optics, lenses, vision, diffraction, quantum properties of light and interaction with molecules, absorption of radiation, electric fields, and electric circuits in the investigation of organisms of all sizes will be presented.
