Course Enrolment Limitations
The course is also offered to the students of the fields other than those the course is directly associated with.
fields of study / plans the course is directly associated with
Course objectives
After successfully passing the course, the students should be able to:
- apply the physical knowledge to analyze a presented physical problem in the physical lab
- to propose and assemble an experimental setup for a successful measurement of the problem
- to distinguish the information needed to pass into the measurement protocol in view of debating the results of the measurement
Learning outcomes
Student gets experience with experimental physical work (experimental plan, measurement, data analysis, presentation).
Syllabus
  • The problem list:
  • Coherence length
  • Planck law, temperature measurement
  • Detection of fluorescence and evaluation of tracer-breakdown curves
  • Photoeffect, measurement of Planck constant
  • Chaotic system
  • Coaxial cables
  • Falling and rotation of flat objects
  • Vacuum physics

Literature
Teaching methods
team work in the physical lab with independency of the students in both the problem choice and its solution
Assessment methods
Every student must pass in a pair three problems (in 3+1 weeks each) of choice (subject to capacity limitations). The credits are awarded after successful presentation of the measurements and their results in extent of commented measurement protocols.
Language of instruction
Czech
