Course content
The subject focuses on the mechanics (statics and dynamics) of a mass point, solids and fluids. Didactic models, real experiments and illustrative measurements, or computer simulations of physical phenomena themselves, as well as the functions of mechanical machines, are used to demonstrate physical laws in mechanics. At the same time, students actively solve problem tasks and cooperate in the practical implementation of experiments and measurements. Curriculum areas: 1) Introduction to mechanics. Fundamentals of metrology, physical quantities and units, measurement processing, measurement errors and uncertainties. 2) Kinematics and dynamics of a mass point. Newton's laws of motion, uniform rectilinear motion and uniformly accelerated rectilinear motion. Forces preventing movement (shearing friction, rolling resistance). 3) Kinematics and dynamics of rotational movement. Angular and circumferential speed, period and frequency of rotation. Centripetal force, inertial forces. 4) Mechanical energy and work, conservation laws, power and efficiency. 5) Rigid body mechanics. Addition of forces, moment theorem, moment of inertia, Hooke's law. 6) Oscillation of a mechanical oscillator. Kinematics and dynamics of harmonic motion, forced oscillation, energy transformations. 7) Mechanical waves in solids. Transverse, longitudinal and surface waves, folding and interference of waves, standing waves of rods, strings, plates and membranes. 8) Fluid mechanics. Pressure, Buoyancy, Archimedes' Law. 9) Mechanical waves in liquids and gases. Fundamentals of physical acoustics and physiology of hearing. Measurement and subjective assessment of sound. Volume, sound pressure, sound intensity and sound power. 10) Flow of an ideal fluid. (Continuity equation, Bernoulli's equation, flow of bodies with a real liquid. Fundamentals of aerodynamics).
