AIMS AND CONTENT AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES The goal is to make students familiar with the basic notions of physics, and to teach them how to solve elementary physics problems useful for other courses. PREREQUISITES Basic mathematics TEACHING METHODS Frontal lessons Laboratory If the University regulations relating to the COVID-19 emergency do not allow face-to-face teaching, lessons and laboratory experiences will be delivered remotely via the Teams platform. SYLLABUS/CONTENT Summary of vector calculus and kinematics Mechanics of solids: principles of dynamics, forces, work, power, energy, mechanical energy conservation, quantity of motion, collisions Mechanics of fluids: statics, ideal and real fluids dynamics, surface phenomena Electromagnetism: electric charge, Coulomb's law, electric field and potential, capacitors, electric current, resistors, simple circuits, magnetic field, electromagnetic induction Electromagnetic waves: general properties Optics: geometric optics (Snell's laws, thin lens equation), introduction to physical optics Thermodynamics: calorimetry (thermometers, heat quantity, heat capacity and specific heat, phase transitions), thermodynamic variables, ideal gas law, internal energy and first thermodynamics law, thermal machines, entropy, second thermodynamics law, thermodynamic potentials Four laboratory experiences: mechanics, electrical measurements, geometric optics and calorimetry RECOMMENDED READING/BIBLIOGRAPHY - D.C.

If the written exam mark is <15/30, the student will have to repeat the exam. ASSESSMENT METHODS The written exam consists in problem solving: students are allowed to use notes downloaded from Aulaweb. The oral exam, with an average duration of 30 minutes, focuses on the discussion of the written exam, on the program content and on the laboratory experiences. Correction of the written test, together with the oral exam, allows the teachers to judge the achievement of the learning outcomes. When these goals are not achieved, the student is invited to deepen the study and to exploitt further explanations by the teacher.
