Learning outcomes of the course unit

The course is intended for a revision (or providing) of the knowledge of physics at secondary school level. Students will be made familiar with physical quantities definitions, and will be able to apply physical laws when solving various physical and technical problems.

Prerequisites

Students are expected to have at least basic knowledge of mathematics: solving of linear and quadratic equations.

Co-requisites
