Physics I

Base Knowledge

Physics and Mathematics of secondary education.

Teaching Methodologies

Theoretical-practical classes, in which concepts are initially explained and then understanding is tested through problem solving. Multiple choice forms and tests are carried out throughout the curricular unit.

Learning Results

It is intended that the students acquires skills in the following areas of physics:

Solid Mechanics

Fluid Mechanics

Program

Solid Mechanics:
Vector calculus
Quantities and Physical Units
Newton’s Laws
Kinematics
Work and Energy
Impulse and Linear Momentum
Mechanical waves and sound

Fluid Mechanics:
Fundamental Principle of Hydrostatics
Principles of Archimedes and Pascal
Continuity and Bernoulli equations
Poiseuille and Stokes laws
