- F1030 Mechanics and molecular physic || F1040 Mechanics and molecular physic
Knowledge of mechanics, electricity and magnetism in the range of standard university courses, practical knowledge of mathematical analysis. - 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
- Applied Physics (programme PřF, B-AF)
- Biophysics (programme PřF, M-FY)
- Course objectives
- The aim of the lecture is to provide students with a description of periodical effects in various parts of physics, especially mechanical and electrical oscillations, mechanical and electromagnetic waves and optics at the level of the basic course of general physics. The emphasis is put on understanding mutual interonnections of different parts of physics and their mathematical description. The lecture is accompanied by lots of experiments.
