Subject aims expressed by acquired skills and competences

Introduction to the subject is devoted to physical quantities, physical principles, technical measurements and experiments and their use in solving specific problems of safety practice. It follows the part devoted to principles of electromagnetic and mechanical waves and their applications, principles of spectroscopic methods, defectoscopy and overview of physical fields. The next part is devoted to basic information about ionizing radiation, sources, natural and artificial radioactivity, dosimetric quantities and their units. The conclusion deals with principles and methods of radiation protection, ionizing radiation detectors, including the use of radionuclides in practice. Learning outcomes of the course unit The aim of the course is to acquaint students with basic physical principles of instruments and devices used in safety practice. Students must demonstrate knowledge of basic physical quantities and principles in safety practice, understand their use in solving practical problems and explain the application and use of technical measurements and technical experiments. Part of the course is knowledge of basic concepts of ionizing radiation and radiation protection. Understanding the objectives and principles of radiation protection.
