Description

"8.03 is the Physics of Vibrations and Waves, the third course of physics. It is not a general institute requrement ofcourse except physics majors will have to take the course. We covered the traditional materials that you find in all Vibrations and Waves. Oscilators, resonance phenomenon, mechanical oscilations, electro magnetic oscilations, and over and above I try wherever possible to make students see also throught 8.03 the familiar world around them atleast the world that they have heard about..."
