Contents	The course of Physics 2 collects the fundamental laws of electro-magnetism and it’s divided in two main parts. In the first part, it includes the main concepts of electrical charge, Coulomb interaction, Electric field and simple circuits. In the second part, the course regards the charges in motion as source of magnetic field, le laws of electromagnetic induction, le interaction forces between electrical currents up to the synthesis of Maxwell equations in integral form to the wave's equations.

Other information	Although not mandatory, the frequency of lessons and exercises is strongly recommended.
Learning verification modality	Single written test and subsequent oral test in written form at the end of the course. Written test: 1) duration: 2 hours, at the end of the course. 2) type: consists of the performance of 3 physics exercises, each exercise is assigned a score of 10 points that contributes to the final evaluation out of a total of 30 points. The oral test is entered with a score of at least 18/30. 3) Objectives: aims to ascertain the ability to apply the main concepts of the course in order to solve basic problems on the topics of Electrostatics, Electric Circuits and Magnetism. Oral test: Will be conducted on the same day or on the day following the written paper. It will be in written form 1) duration: maximum 1 hour. 2) type: consists primarily of open-ended questions on course topics to be described and detailed with demonstrations and applications to phenomena. 3) objectives: aims to ascertain the degree of knowledge and mastery and ability to communicate the fundamental concepts of electromagnetism also with application references relevant to the Chemistry course.
