AIMS AND CONTENT

LEARNING OUTCOMES

this teaching unit provides the fundamental concepts and laws of mechanics and electromagnetism in vacuum, with the aim of developing a solid understanding of basic physical phenomena and the theoretical tools required to describe them. Particular emphasis is placed on understanding the usefulness and limitations of employing models and simplifications—such as the point particle or rigid body—in relation to real-world physical situations. Through the study of motion, forces, conservation laws, and classical electromagnetism, students become familiar with the scientific language and mathematical formalism needed to describe the behavior of physical systems. The course also guides students through the analysis of direct current electrical circuits, the concepts of electric and magnetic fields, and the fundamental laws governing them, such as Gauss’s, Ampère’s, and Faraday’s laws. Teaching activities, structured into lectures and problem-solving sessions, are designed to develop students’ problem-solving skills, critical evaluation of results, and correct application of physical laws to concrete contexts. The course thus promotes an integrated and methodical approach to the study of physics, preparing students to tackle more advanced topics with scientific method.
