The course is offered to students of any study field.
Course objectives
The course is a free continuation of the course Didactics of Physics I. The course offers a didactical and methodical explanation of individual chapters of high school physics accompanied with a more detailed analysis of selected parts. It is focused both on basic and additional topics, obligatory experiments and on the methods of solution of physical problems. Number of hours of single physics chapters is discussed. The contents of selected lessons together with included experiments and problems for solutions is analyzed.
At the end of this course, students should: understand and be able to explain the organization of the high school physics course; be able to perform and explain didactical and methodical analysis of individual chapters of high school physics.
Syllabus
  • 1. Kinematics and dynamics of mass point (position; motion, velocity, acceleration; Newton laws of motion, momentum).
  • 2. Work and energy in mechanics, the work-energy transformation and conservation; mechanics of a rigid body; moment of a force; moment of inertia).
  • 3. Mechanics of liquids and gases (Archimedes principle; continuity equation; Bernoulli equation).
  • 4. Elements of molecular physics (Brownian motion; microscopic explanation of gas pressure; ideal gas equation of state; processes in gas; molecular structure of liquids and solids; phase transitions).
  • 5. Motion in force field (gravitational field, Newton law of gravitation; electrostatic field, Coulomb law).
  • 6. Mechanical oscillations and waves (harmonic motion; equation of traveling waves in an array of mass points; interference of waves; Huygens principle).
  • 7. Electric current in matter (solids – metals, Ohm law, Kirchhoff laws; semiconductors; liquids fluids Faraday laws; gases).
  • 8. Stationary magnetic field (magnetic field of a current-carrying wire; Ampere law; charged particle in a magnetic field).
  • 9. Non-stationary magnetic field (electromagnetic induction, Faraday law; alternating voltage, circuits with alternating current).
  • 10. Electromagnetic oscillations and waves (oscillating circuit; electromagnetic wave; applications).
  • 11. Optics (geometrical optics, optical images; wave properties of light, interference, diffraction, polarization; quantum properties of radiation, photoelectric effect).
  • 12. Elements of atomic physics (electron cloud, hydrogen spectrum, atomic nucleus, nuclear energy and its applications).
  • 13. Elements of astrophysics (star characteristics; interior of stars, evolution of stars; structure of universe, Solar system).
