Physics 2 for KME

Lecturer:

Stanislav Pekárek (gar.)

Tutor:

Stanislav Pekárek (gar.), Jaroslav Jíra

Supervisor:

Department of Physics

Synopsis:

The course Physics 2 is closely linked with the course Physics 1. Within the framework of this course the students will first of all learn foundations of thermodynamics. Following topic - the theory of waves - will give to the students basic insight into the properties of waves and will help to the students to understand that the presented description of the waves has a universal character in spite of the waves character. Particular types of waves, such as acoustic or optical waves are the subjects of the following section. Relativistic mechanics, quantum mechanics and nuclear physics will complete the student´s general education in physics. The knowledge gained in this course will help to students in the study of such modern disciplines as measuring technique, propagation of electromagnetic waves, electroacoustic or optical communications and will allow them to understand the principles of novel technologies and functioning of new electronic devices.
