| Aim: The aim of the course is to provide basic education in physics, tailored for further university studies in science and technology. |
|||
| Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered) See the admission requirements for the foundation year. Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding. |
|||
| Organisation: The course consists of two parts, part A and part B. Part A begins in the autumn, period 2 and part B in the spring, period 1 and continues throughout the entire spring term. Part A corresponds to 5 points (1 point laboratory work) and part B corresponds to 8 points (2 points laboratory work). Teaching consists of lectures, problem solving and laboratory work. |
|||
| Course contents: Part A: Optics: refraction and reflection. Mechanics: force, torque, equilibrium, pressure, kinematics in one dimension, energy and the princple of conservation of mechanical energy, mass, work, power and the Newton´s laws or motion. Heat: temperature and phase change. Electricity: charge, current, voltage, resistance, electrical circuits, electric energy and power. Part B: Mechanics: momentum, impulse, kinematics in two dimensions, mechanical oscillations and Newton´s law of universal gravitation. Electricity: electric and magnetic fields and induction. Waves: mechanical and electromagnetic waves, resonance, diffraction and interference. Atomic physics: the Bohr model, absorption and emission, quantisation of energy and the photon. Nuclear physics: nucleon, radioactivity, ionizing radiation, fission, fusion and equivalence of matter and energy. |
