Phys2 Energy (TZLF2300-3051)

During the course, you will learn the physic laws of conservation and the basics of oscillation. In addition, you will learn about physical measurements and the basics of error analysis. After the course, you will be able to apply this information to mathematics as a help in the study modules that you will later study in the degree program.

Learning outcomes of the course

You have the knowledge and understanding of mathematics and other basic sciences underlying your engineering specialisation, at a level necessary to achieve the other programme learning outcomes (EA-KW).
You have the ability and practical skills to design and conduct experimental investigations, interpret data and draw conclusions (EA-IG).

Aim of the course

After completing this course, you will know the basic principles of work and energy in both linear motion and rotational motion.You will understand the laws of oscillation and, with your knowledge, understand the basic legalities and problems dealing with oscillation in your own profession.

The course completion requires abilities to use basic functions and solve groups of equations. The ability to use coordinate systems is needed for solving motion and force related problems.

Linear momentum and impulse, elastic and inelastic collisions, angular momentum, conservation of mechanical energy, mechanical work, power and efficiency, kinetic energy, gravitational potential energy, elastic potential energy, simple harmonic motion, damped oscillation
