Fundamentals of Physics
Presentation
532/5000 The course covers the basic concepts of Physics, namely the principles of mechanics and electricity. The course is divided into two parts: Theoretical and practical. In the theoretical part, we present the fundamental concepts of mechanics / electricity which are fundamental in the formation of an Engineer in general. In the practical part where we solve exercises in order to consolidate the knowledge obtained in the theoretical part, being of the most importance mathematical logical development in these resolutions.

Objectives
The purpose of learning in this UC is to give the student the ability to describe, analyze and
solve problems related to some elementary mechanics / electricity phenomena, including
waves and vibrations. In addition, introducing the basic concepts of classical mechanics with
emphasis on problem solving to serve as a basis for your professional training.
Teaching methodologies and assessment
The teaching methodology is based on theoretical and practical classes. In theoretical classes, The assessment consists of two tests and a practical assignment.
presented the concepts and theoretical foundation with some examples. In practical classes
worksheets are resolved, made available in advance to students, by the teacher and students.
