Syllabus
Course overview and goals
The course offers exercises related to the contents of Fundamentals of Mechanics 1 and 2.
Students solve given problems and present their answers. This will allow them to understand mechanics and prepare them to solve more general problems in physics.
Course description and aims
By completing this course, students will be able to:
1) Find mathematical solutions to problems in mechanics and explain the physical meanings of said solutions.
2) Acquire methods and approaches to solve more general problems in physics.
Keywords
particles, system of particles, rigid bodies, Newton’s laws of motion, conservation of momentum, conservation of energy, conservation of angular momentum, moment of inertia, inertial force
Competencies
- Specialist skills
- Intercultural skills
- Communication skills
- Critical thinking skills
- Practical and/or problem-solving skills
Class flow
This course is conducted every two weeks alternately with Physics Experiment I. Students solve given problems and explain their answers.
