A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

0 FIELDS

The topic of fields introduces the idea that physical influence can be described as a quantity assigned to every point in space. For Field and Waves, you must master what a field is, the major types of fields, how field strength is represented, and how field lines help us interpret direction and magnitude, because these ideas are the foundation for later work on electric, magnetic, and wave phenomena.
