Objectives

Study of the movement of the material point, particle systems and rigid body:
application of kinematics, Newton's Laws and mechanical energy. Understanding
practical application of general principles and application to simple physical systems.
It is intended that students acquire the following basic skills: knowledge in
depth of the S.I. of units and verification of the dimensional coherence of
equations / models; kinematic study of simple and complex motion on the line,
plane and space; establishment of relations between the motion and its causes;
mastery of the concept of energy, the various forms of energy and balance sheets
energy. It is intended to help students in the mastery and theoretical and practical
understanding of some simple mechanical situations through visualization and
demonstration actions in the laboratory.

Teaching methodologies and assessment

Classes consist of an hour and a half a week of theory exposition,
an hour and a half weekly of exercise resolution, and two weekly hours of Lab.
Evaluation rules: NF=0.7*PE+0.3*PC
1. Written Test (PE, 70% of final grade)
a) Continuous assessment (two tests, in three moments of
assessment)
Requirements for approval in the course:
- Arithmetic mean between the two best tests equal or
greater than 10 values, provided that both tests have
rating equal to or greater than 6 values.
b) Final exam
Requirements for approval in the course:
- Rating equal to or greater than 10 values;
- Supplementary test (oral and/or written) for a classification equal to 9
values.
2. Computational and Laboratory Projects (PC, 30% of final grade)
Requirements for approval:
- Mandatory presence in 75% of classes and delivery of projects.

Exceptionally, an oral can be held to confirm any grade obtained
in the written assessment.
