Résumé:
This textbook is intended as an introductory resource for Physics 2, with a
particular emphasis on electricity and magnetism. It is primarily designed
for first-year students enrolled in science and technology programs. In
developing this material, our objective has been to build upon the
foundational knowledge typically acquired in high school, thereby
facilitating a smooth and coherent transition to the more advanced study of
physics at the university level.
One of the main challenges encountered in preparing this course concerns
the mathematical framework. Physics, as a discipline grounded in precision
and rigor, requires a more formal treatment of concepts that are often
introduced in a simplified manner during secondary education. For this
reason, particular attention has been devoted to presenting and reinforcing
the mathematical tools that we regard as indispensable for a thorough and
comprehensive understanding of the subject matter.
