Aim:
The aim of the course is to provide a basic knowledge of physics, adapted for continued university studies within the areas of technology and natural science. The course provides qualifications equivalent to �?oFysik 2�?�.
After the course, the student should be able to:
- Solve problems and explain phenomena in the areas mechanics,electromagnetism, wave theory and modern physics.
- Use physical concepts and models in a mathematical form, and calculate physical quantities.
- Perform physical experiments and analyze the results.
