Aims

The object of Physics I is to be well informed about quantities and units of the SI system. Furthermore, gain a notion of particles movements, their systems, solids and continuum in force fields with respect to energetic approach. To obtain this, the brief gravitational and electrostatic theory will be given. As a special case students gain knowledge of heat motion and orientated motion of charge carriers forming electricity. The students takes some information about modern physics at the end of course. The objective is to show that physics is the theoretical ground and starting point of engineering branch.

Specification of controlled education, way of implementation and compensation for absences

Participation on exercises and purchasing of 50% points from control works in theoretical exercises. If the student does not fill this requirement, the teacher can determine alternative requirement giving of include
