Learning outcomes |
Acquisition of basic knowledge, theoretical and practical, in Physics, namely in Mechanics, and Vibrations and Waves, for the understanding of important physical phenomena for Engineering.
At the end of the course, the student should be able to analyze, understand and mathematically describe some basic phenomena of Mechanics, and Vibrations and Waves. Consequently, will be able to apply its basic principles in the description and discussion of a physical experience relevant to Engineering.
