Course detail
Physics
FSI-BFAcad. year: 2021/2022
It is an introductory course of classical physics for bachelors, which is oriented to solving simple physical and technical tasks. The acquired knowledge creates the physical basis of technical branches. The course covers: Motion of a particle (velocity, acceleration); Work and energy (conservative and non-conservative forces, potential); Dynamics of a rotating solid body; Vibrations, harmonic oscillator; Waves, travelling wave, interference of waves; Thermodynamics; Electrostatic field, electric current, simple circuit.
