- Course objectives
- This lecture is devoted to a review of fundamentals of the classical (nonquantum) physics. Its main aim is to demonstrate the interconnections between its branches, its most important notions, laws and methods and its historical evolution. The second part of lecture is devoted to the theory of electromagnetic field in vacuujm and in materials, special theory of relativity, fundaments of its fordimmensional formalism, relativistic formulation of mechanics anf t and relativistic representation of the equations of electromagnetic field. In the end of the lecture, an introduction into the general theory of relativity is presented.
- Syllabus
