Fundamentals of Physics

• ApresentaçãoPresentation

  The course is intended to give students a broader and deeper basis in the field of physics, which will allow them to continue their studies in engineering.
• ProgramaProgramme

  1. Electrostatics and Electricity 1.1 Electric Charge and Electric Fiel. 1.2. Gauss's Law 1.3. Electric Potential. 1.4. Current, Resistance and Electromotive Force. 1.5. Direct Current Circuits. 2. Electromagnestism 2.1. Magnetic Field and Magnetic Force. 2.2. Electromagnetic Induction 2.3. Rationale for Current Generation Alternating. 3. Optics 3.1. Nature of Light Propagation. 3.2. Geometrical Optics 4. Basic notions of Quantum Physics.
• ObjectivosObjectives

  Consolidate the basic notions of mathematics indispensable for the defined program. Introduce Physics as a basic science for the study of other sciences and its fundamental character for technological development. Associate the physical systems with a set of variables that, at each instant, assuming a certain value, can together constitute a model capable of describing the state of the system at that moment and predicting its evolution. Acquire habits of scientific rigor and critical sense, so that you see science not as a body of static knowledge, but as a system that regulates itself through comparison with reality (experimentation). Develop reasoning skills, essential throughout the course and necessary for professional life.  Encourage discussion and analysis of everyday problems where the acquired knowledge can be applied. Acquire fundamental knowledge of electrostatic and electricity, electromagnetism, Optics.

• MetodologiaMethodology

  The approach of the subjects to be taught will be done in a simple way where the student will have the main role to transmit and express their gaps, regarding the mastery of the subjects, as well as their correct interpretation and use. The pedagogical approach of the contents is done in three duly accompanied phases: interpretation of statements, resolution of the exercises by the students, collective and individualized discussion of the issues that the problem raises and its resolution. Assessment Methodology: Continuous evaluation: 2 intermediate tests - 90% of the final grade, Attendance and participation - 10% of the final grade All students who have not successfully completed the assessment can take a final exam at the time defined by the institution.

• AvaliaçãoEvaluation

  Descrição dos instrumentos de avaliação (individuais e de grupo) ¿ testes, trabalhos práticos, relatórios, projetos... respetivas datas de entrega/apresentação... e ponderação na nota final.

  Exemplo:

  Descrição	Data limite	Ponderação
  Teste de avaliação 1 (*)	A agendar durante o semestre	45%(**)
  Teste de avaliação 2 (*)	A agendar durante o semestre	45%(**)
  Assiduidade e participação	--	10%

   

  (*) A realizar no decorrer do semestre.
  (**) Para avaliação da época normal (Curricular) , é necessário a existência de uma avaliação quantitativa em todos os elementos de avaliação para a obtenção de uma avaliação final. Sendo que para os testes intermedio terá uma nota mínima de 8 valores/cada, os alunos com nota inferior aos valores apresentados para os testes intermedios, terão de se submeter a avaliação final por exame.
