Summary
Physics I Practical Exercises follow the course of the first year Physics I. Their goaln is to practice and consolidate the knowledge gained in this previously lectured courses in mechanics and molecular physics. In addition to theoretical knowledge, students also acquire practical skills in relevant areas.
Compulsory literature:
Halliday, D., Resnick, R., Walker, J.: Fundamentals of Physics, John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1997.
Recommended literature:
Supportive materials in LMS
Way of continuous check of knowledge in the course of semester
