Purpose and description of the content of education: | As part of the module, students will participate in lectures with demonstrations and seminar classes. The aim of the lecture is to familiarize students with issues related to kinematics, dynamics, and conservation law of a material point and a rigid body, oscillations of simple and complex physical systems, mechanical waves as well as elements of relativistic mechanics. The aim of the seminar is to acquire problem solving skills, checking the understanding of the issues discussed during the lecture. |
