Prerequisites
Knowledge of general and theoretical physics on the level of the first group of requirements for the bachelor examination of the bachelor study program Physics.
Course Enrolment Limitations
The course is offered to students of any study field.
Course objectives
The lecture summarizes the university course of general and theoretical physics. Its purpose is to give the global survey as well as the sufficient overview of physics as a whole based on the consciousness of integrating ideas, knowledge of general approaches and understanding of universal connections. The knowledge of individual physical disciplines is used but not repeated in detail.
At the end of the course students should understand integrating physical ideas, corresponding general approaches and universal connections in parts of physics covered by the course and be able to explain them.
Syllabus
  • 1. The physical model of reality and its adequacy.
  • 2. Evolution of physics and its basic conceptions, space and time in classical and relativistic physics, distances and structures, interactions.
  • 3. Equations of motion and conservation laws in mechanics of particles, continuum mechanics and in relativistic and quantum physics.
  • 4. Description of physical phenomena in various reference systems.
  • 5. Thermodynamic and statistical methods.
  • 6. The role of experiment in construction and verification of physical theories.
  • 7. Experiment and measurement, measurement methods, precision and correctness of measurement, data processing, systems of units.
