Learning outcomes of the course unit

Students will obtain basic knowledge of mechanics, theory of physical field and wave and quantum physics

Prerequisites

Mathematics - basic of vector algebra, derivation, integration, improper and proper integral, linear differential equations of second order

Co-requisites

Not applicable.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

The course uses teaching methods in form of Lecture - 3 teaching hours per week, seminars - 2 teaching hours per week. The e-learning system (LMS Moodle) is available to teachers and students.

Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes

It is required from theoretical exercises obtain minimum 10 from 20 points and to be succesfull in two tests (minimum 4 points from 8 for each test) Examination verifies the knowledge of definitions, laws and their applications on the examples namely. Examination is in oral form. The student can graduate the oral examination after obtaining of 18 points in exercises, it is succesfull in minimum 32 points.

Aims

The object of Physics I is to be well informed about quantities and units of the SI system. Furthermore, gain a notion of particles movements, their systems, solids and continuum in force fields with respect to energetic approach. To obtain this, the brief gravitational and electrostatic theory will be given. As a special case students gain knowledge of heat motion and orientated motion of charge carriers forming electricity. The students takes some information about modern physics at the end of course. The objective is to show that physics is the theoretical ground and starting point of engineering branch.

Specification of controlled education, way of implementation and compensation for absences

Participation at seminars and gaining of at least 18 points from the control work in theoretical exercise (Mechanics - 8 points, Physical field - 8 points, 20 points in the exercises). If the student fails to fulfill this condition, the teacher may set a substitute grant condition. The remaining 64 points can be obtained after a successful oral exam. To qualify for a credit, at least 50% of points for each part (4 points, 4 points, 10 points) must be met. A minimum of 50% points (32 points) must be awarded for the successful passing of the exam. The assessment of the test takes into account the point assessment of the exercise.
