| Aims |
Introduction to the basic principles of Newton's mechanics and special relativity ; their primary physical meaning and consequences ; and their actual implementation through the appropriate mathematical tools. To acquire experience in model building of realistic systems within the framework of physical phenomena of point mechanics and rigid bodies, in combination with actual experimental demonstrations and laboratory practicals. Provides the basic physics concepts necessary for the course PHY 1112, General Physics 2 (2Q), with which it constitutes a coherent curriculum, to be completed by the course PHY 1211, General Physics 3 (second year bachelor's degree).
