COURSE OUTCOMES
CO1
REMEMBER UNDERSTAND APPLY
Remember the concept of radioactive decay, half life and mean life of radio active element. Understand the decay and growth of radioactive element. Also understand different equilibrium. Evaluate the estimated value of age of the earth by using lead method and carbon dating method.
CO2
REMEMBER UNDERSTAND EVALUATE APPLICATION
Remember the construction and basic working of transistor and zener diode. Understand the different configuration of transistor and their characteristics.. Evaluate different parameters like collector cut off current, leakage current etc. Also understand regulation process executed by zener diode working of tunnel diode. Also calculate different parameters related to regulation process which helps to design any regulator circuit.
Basic wave concept of light is studied using the diffraction phenomenon. Apply the knowledge to understand the resolutions of some basic optical instruments
Develop a conceptual understanding of the Time dependent and Timeindependent Schrodinger equations, their physical significance, and their application to basic quantum systems such as free particles, particles in a box, and barrier potential. Analyze and interpret the general wave equation, the physical meaning of the wave function, and probability current density. Students will discuss non-normalizable wave functions and the significance ofbox normalization. Solve the Schrodinger equation for standard potentials (infinite square well, particle in a box, and barrier potential), understand quantization of energy levels, and explain the concept of stationary states and their time evolution. Understand and articulate the general formalism of wave mechanics including the use of operator algebra, fundamental postulates, adjointness and self-adjointness of operators, eigenvalue problems (including degeneracy, observables, and normalization), and the use of Dirac delta functions and closure relations in quantum mechanic. Describe and employ critical tools such as the probability interpretation for [N ]-particle systems, the completeness of eigenfunctions, and normalization conditions necessary for quantum descriptions
