PHYS3EM: Electromagnetism Module (Normal and Advanced)

Semester 1 , 2018 | 6 Credit Points | Coordinator: A/Prof Boris Kuhlmey(boris.kuhlmey@sydney.edu.au)

1 IntroductionThis module develops the classical theory of electromagnetism, one of the cornerstones of physics. It builds oncourses in Junior and Intermediate Physics, which introduced Maxwell’s equations in their integral form. We willdevelop the equations in differential form, using the power of vector calculus.The main application will be toelectromagnetic (EM) waves, including the interaction of waves with matter through reflection and transmission. TheAdvanced stream will also cover absorption of EM waves, waveguides as well as gauge transformations and EMradiation. These have application in fields such as optics, plasma physics and astrophysics. A few “technology briefs”about the real world applications will be discussed in the normal steam (examples include the principles of operationof optical tweezers and EMF sensors). This module lays the foundation for more advanced treatments, such as a fulldescription of electrodynamics within the framework of special relativity. The course content is defined in terms of thetextbook. However, the material may not necessarily be covered in the same order as in the textbook.

The Normal version of this module is a component of the unit PHYS 3040.The Advanced version of this module is acomponent of the units PHYS 3940 and 3941. In both cases this module can be considered as 2 credit points of the 6credit points associated with each unit.

You are in control of your own study strategy, and as an adult learner it is up to you to devise a study plan that bestsuits you. If you attend classes regularly you should gain a good understanding of the course work. Our experienceindicates that not all students attend lectures regularly and this has a considerable negative impact on their exampreparation and performance.

Good study habits are also very important - we offer some suggestions on our Learning Physics web page(http://sydney.edu.au/science/physics/current/learningphysics.shtml).

7 Assessment Tasks

You are responsible for understanding the University policy regarding assessment andexamination, which can be found in the University Policy Register at http://sydney.edu.au/policies/ To achieve good results, students in physics must be able to express themselves accurately by clear, efficient use ofthe English language in their written work. Spelling, grammar, punctuation and correct use of language will be takeninto account when written reports and examination work are assessed. You should refer to the University’s WriteSite(http://writesite.elearn.usyd.edu.au/) if you are looking for guidance on grammar and other aspects of academic andprofessional writing. AssessmentAssessment of this unit of study is based on an understanding of the Course Content demonstratedin a combination of assessments - a final examination, a mid-semester examination andassignments spaced through the semester. Note that a result is returned for the entire unit of study, not this module separately. Late Assignments

Assignments (and other assessment items) submitted late without permission (see SpecialConsiderations: sydney.edu.au/students/special-consideration-and-arrangements.html) will incur a late penalty equal to 5% of themaximum mark per day. These deductions will continue for 10 calendar days or until a solution for the assignment is released ormarked assignments are returned to other students. At that point the available mark will go to zero.

For example, on an assignment given a mark of 7/10, the penalty would be 0.5 marks if submitted up to 24 hours late, resultingin a final mark of 6.5/10. If the assignment is submitted 6 days late, the penalty would be 3 marks and the final mark would be 4/10. Final mark and gradeThe final mark in a unit is the total mark for the component modules (including lab/SpecialProject), weighted by the credit value of each, and the grade is assigned accordingly. A pass gradein a Normal unit requires a pass in the core lecture module (Electromagnetism or Quantum Physicsor Statistical Mechanics), if the unit includes a core module. A pass grade in an Advanced unitrequires a pass in all component modules in the unit (including lab/Special project).

TURNITIN SUBMISSION

For assignments:

All assignments in this unit should be submitted online through the Turnitin link provided on theeLearning site for this unit. Please ensure your SID is prominent on your assignment (e.g. perhapsin a header or footer).

Assignments may be submitted in one of two formats:

Text-based PDFs (e.g. in Word, use 'save as' and choose PDF). This should ensure that theyappear formatted as you intended. If the assignment contains equations, then we recommendyou use the Word Equation Editing tools (or equivalent).If the assignment has a significant content of equations (symbolic or numerical), a partiallyor fully scanned PDF version of a handwritten assignment is also acceptable. Scanning at150dpi or greater is recommended. Photographs of pages are also acceptable but you MUSTensure that the resulting image is clear and easily readable.

In all cases, unclear or illegible assignments will not be marked.

Assignments must be submitted online by 11:59pm on the due date date. Ensure youclick Confirm to complete the submission of your assignment. You should then receive an emailacknowledgement of your submission.

NEW - After uploading a file, Turnitin opens a window showing the content as uploaded. If yourfile doesn’t show up clearly and correctly, with all intended pages, you will need to fix theproblem. Any new submissions correcting a problem after the due date will be counted as a latesubmission.

Descriptions of Summative Assessments

AssignmentThere will be one assignment sheet available from the Blackboard site. Students submit individual (not group)responses to assignments.

We encourage students to discuss assignments, but we will NOT accept assignments that are simply copiedbetween students or from any other source. You should write your final answers independently, expressing theanswers in your own words and with your own working. Allowing your work to be copied is unfair to other studentsand ultimately, does not help the student copying from your work.

You are reminded that, whilst it is acceptable to collaborate on an assignment with other students, you must writeyour own version of the answer.

Assignments must be submitted electronically through turnitin (see above).The School of Physics does not take responsibility for lost assignments. You are advised to keep a copy of allassignments submitted.

Quizzes (please refer to description of summative assessments)

Each quiz, 20 min duration, will constitute multiple choice or short-answer style questions onweek 2 Friday 16th March, week 4 Thursday 29th March and week 6 Friday 20th April.

Final ExaminationA one-hour and thirty minutes examination covering the material included in this module is held at the end of thesemester. You will be asked to write descriptive answers to questions, to explain physical principles and to answerquantitative questions, all aimed at demonstrating your progress in achieving the goals of the unit. An ability tomemorise formulae and manipulate them without understanding the associated concepts will not be rewarded. Proofof identification is required at all examinations. Note that you must bring your own non-programmable calculator tothe examination. See the University policy on calculators at http://www.usyd.edu.au/current_students/student_administration/examinations/students.shtml#calculators

7.2 Assessment GradingFinal grades in this unit are awarded at levels of HD (High Distinction), DI (Distinction), CR (Credit), PS (Pass) andFA (Fail) as defined by the Academic Board Assessment Coursework Policy 2014. These achievement levels aredescribed below. Details of the policy are available on the University’s ‘Policy Online’ website at http://www.sydney.edu.au/policies/.

Assessment tasks are moderated to ensure their appropriateness, their consistency with the achievement leveldescriptors below and equity of grade distributions across the units offered by the Faculty of Science. In SeniorPhysics, our aim is to give everyone a chance of a high grade, irrespective of their unit of study. To achieve this, wecompare student marks with student AAMs, and compare Normal and Advanced units by having some assessmenttasks in common. We use this comparison to ensure one class isn't being disadvantaged by, say, a difficultassessment task. The result of this moderation process is a higher percentage of HDs and DIs in the Advanced unit(as you might expect), however the process also ensures there are HDs and DIs awarded in the other units of studyto students who excel.

Grades:

High Distinction (HD)At HD level, a student demonstrates a flair for the subject and comprehensive knowledge and understanding of theunit material. A ‘High Distinction’ reflects exceptional achievement and is awarded to a student who demonstrates theability to apply subject knowledge to novel situations.

Distinction (DI)At DI level, a student demonstrates an aptitude for the subject and a solid knowledge and understanding of the unitmaterial. A ‘Distinction’ reflects excellent achievement and is awarded to a student who demonstrates an ability toapply the key ideas of the subject.

Credit (CR)At CR level, a student demonstrates a good command and knowledge of the unit material. A ‘Credit’ reflects solidachievement and is awarded to a student who has a broad understanding of the unit material but has not fullydeveloped the ability to apply the key ideas of the subject.

Pass (PS)At PS level, a student demonstrates proficiency in the unit material. A ‘Pass’ reflects satisfactory achievement and isawarded to a student who has threshold knowledge of the subject.

Assessed exercises may not be revised and resubmitted for re-marking.

8 Academic Integrity

While the University is aware that the vast majority of students and staff act ethically and honestly,it is opposed to and will not tolerate academic dishonesty or plagiarism and will treat all allegationsof dishonesty seriously.

All students are expected to be familiar and act in compliance with the relevant University policies,procedures and codes, which include:

Academic Honesty in Coursework Policy 2015Academic Honesty Procedures 2016Code of Conduct for StudentsResearch Code of Conduct 2013 (for honours and postgraduate dissertation units)

They can be accessed via the University's Policy Register: http://sydney.edu.au/policies (enter'Academic Honesty' in the search field).

Students should never use document-sharing sites and should be extremely wary of using online'tutor' services. Further information on academic honesty and the resources available to all studentscan be found on the Academic Integrity page of the University website:http://sydney.edu.au/elearning/student/EI/index.shtml.

8.1 Academic Dishonesty and Plagiarism

Academic dishonesty involves seeking unfair academic advantage or helping another student to doso.

You may be found to have engaged in academic dishonesty if you:

You may be found to have engaged in academic dishonesty if you:

Resubmit (or 'recycle') work that you have already submitted for assessment in the same unitor in a different unit or previous attempt.Use assessment answers hosted on the internet, including those uploaded to documentsharing websites by other students.Have someone else complete part or all of an assessment for you, or do this for anotherstudent.Except for legitimate group work purposes, providing assessment questions and answers toother students directly or through social media platforms or document ('notes') sharingwebsites, including essays and written reports.Engage in examination misconduct, including using cheat notes or unapproved electronicdevices (e.g., smartphones), copying from other students, discussing an exam with anotherperson while it is in progress, or removing confidential examination papers from theexamination venue.Engage in dishonest plagiarism.

Plagiarism means presenting another person's work as if it is your own without properly oradequately referencing the original source of the work.

Plagiarism is using someone else's ideas, words, formulas, methods, evidence, programming code,images, artworks, or musical creations without proper acknowledgement. If you use someone'sactual words you must use quotation marks as well as an appropriate reference. If you usesomeone's ideas, formulas, methods, evidence, tables or images you must use a reference. Youmust not present someone's artistic work, musical creation, programming code or any other formof intellectual property as your own. If referring to any of these, you must always present them asthe work of their creator and reference in an appropriate way.

Plagiarism is always unacceptable, regardless of whether it is done intentionally or not. It isconsidered dishonest if done knowingly, with intent to deceive, or if a reasonable person can seethat the assessment contains important material copied from other sources and not properlyreferenced. The University understands that not all plagiarism is dishonest and provides studentswith opportunities to improve their academic writing, including their understanding of scholarlycitation and referencing practices.

8.2 Use of Similarity Detection Software

All written assessments submitted in this unit of study will be submitted to the similarity detectingsoftware program known as Turnitin. Turnitin searches for matches between text in your writtenassessment task and text sourced from the Internet, published works and assessments that havepreviously been submitted to Turnitin for analysis.

There will always be some degree of text-matching when using Turnitin. Text-matching may occurin use of direct quotations, technical terms and phrases, or the listing of bibliographic material.This does not mean you will automatically be accused of academic dishonesty or plagiarism,although Turnitin reports may be used as evidence in academic dishonesty and plagiarismdecision-making processes.
