https://moodle.fel.cvut.cz/courses/BE5B02PH2Anotation:
Within the framework of this course the students will first of all learn foundations of thermodynamics. Following topic - the theory of waves - will give to the students basic insight into the properties of waves and will help to the students to understand that the presented description of the waves has a universal character in spite of the waves character. Particular types of waves, such as acoustic or optical waves are the subjects of the following section. Quantum mechanics and nuclear physics will complete the student?s general education in physics. The knowledge gained in this course will help to the students in study of such modern areas as robotics, computer vision, measuring technique and will allow them to understand the principles of novel technologies and functioning of new electronic devices.Study targets:
The goal of the Physics 2 course is to provide the student with a broad understanding of the physical principles of the thermodynamics, waves, optics, quantum physics and nuclear physics. This course should help students to develop critical thinking and quantitative reasoning skills, to empower them to think creatively and critically to solve the problems associated with everyday life as well as with their professional career.Content:
