Objective
EUR-ACE, Knowledge and understanding: The students will understand the connection between the theoretical course contents and real-life situations. They will learn to make simplified assumptions, apply the appropriate physical principles and evaluate the final results.
Logistics, Natural sciences: In the laboratory they will see the importance of error analysis (mathematics) while making reports of experiments combining theory and practice.
Content
SI units, kinematics, motion with constant acceleration, freely falling bodies, relative velocity. Newton’s laws of motion, dynamics of particles, mechanical work, power and energy, conservation of mechanical energy. Momentum, impulse and collisions. Dynamics of circular motion.
Qualifications
The students are able to find information independently and to prepare reports. They have the basic knowledge of mathematics.
