Course Contents:
This course is designed to help students
who start during the summer term to immediately join the Physik II course and those
who failed the Physik I exam in the winter term to reiterate important aspects before selecting Physik II.
The course is extremely compact and will cover probably the fundamentals of the following topics:
- Measurements
- Kinematics
- Dynamics and forces
- Work, energy, and energy conservation
- Momentum and momentum conservation
- Rotational motion
- Gravity
- Deformation of solids, fluids
Literature:
Typical texts in introductory physics, focusing on mechanics, e.g.,
- Giancoli: Physics for Scientists and Engineers
- Halliday, Resnick, Walker: Fundamentals of Physics
- Young, Freedman: Sears and Zemansky's University Physics
Expected Number of Participants:
20-50
Further Grading Information:
No exam, no credit points.
This course consists mainly of a lecture. Problems will be included into the presentation.
Official Course Description:
Students are prepared for taking the Physik II class in the summer term.
Additional Information:
Materials will be provided through Moodle.
Risk Assessment:
Risk assessment
- Visiting closed rooms and lecture halls with large number of participants may stimulate fatigue. We ask you to open doors and (where available) windows during the breaks. To take environmental issues into consideration, excessive heat loss is to be avoided in heated rooms when venting.
- Be advised that mainaining a monotonous, restricted posture (sitting) should be avoided over extended periods of time. Please use the breaks for your personal mobilization.
- Also take care of an adaequate seating position when taking notes or when using electronic devices because in lecture halls the recommendations of the workplace guidelines may not be guaranteed.
- The lecture halls, in which lecture and recitation sessions will be held, are equipped with stairs. Please note possible tripping hazards. For reasons of safety, a class cannot start as long as stairs, flights, or escape routes are blocked, e.g., due to a too high number of participants.
- For the case of a possible evacuation (fire, smoke, threat, emergency situations, etc.), please inform yourself about the posted evacuation plans. Follow the signs to the emergency exits.
- Should you become aware of an emergency situation (fire, smoke, threat, etc.), please notify teaching personnel immediately.
