Brief Description of the Course:

The goal of the “General Physics I” course is to provide students, future physics teachers, with knowledge about motion and its types in the macro-world, the interaction of bodies and mechanical forces, conditions of equilibrium of bodies, solid body mechanics, fluid mechanics, mechanical oscillations, and waves, as well as to develop skills in conducting mechanical experiments. The “General Physics I” course aims to teach students to solve problems on all topics covered in practical and laboratory sessions, organize and conduct laboratory work, perform calculations, draw conclusions, and correctly identify physical laws and their relationships.
