Course/Module description:
In this course we will meet physical and mathematical values, and we will define units and how to convert them. We will study the Newtonian mechanics and explore different types of motion.
Course/Module aims:
Provide basic mathematical and physical knowledge when solving problems in physics. Ability to solve problems in physics (especially mechanics) with an emphasis on an orderly solution and standard units.
Learning outcomes - On successful completion of this module, students should be able to:
1. To control the basic trigonometric functions
2. Handle vectors in a cartesian coordinate system
3. Convert units as well as control scientific order of magnitude
4. To present an orderly solution that expresses analytic thinking
5. Organize data - understand what is missing - and solve a suitable equation
6. Characterize different types of motion.
7. Analyze graphs and make conclusions.
