The MIT Physics II: Electricity and Magnetism course was split into two parts by STEMHelp to introduce it more efficiently in our site. If you are finished with part one you can begin learning Part 2 here → MIT Physics II: Electricity and Magnetism - Part 2

In this course you'll learn about Electricity and Magnetism and how they dominate much of the world around us – from the most fundamental processes in nature to state of the art electronic technology.

Course taught by Prof. Walter Lewin
