Learning activities and teaching methods
Monologic (reading, lecture, briefing), Dialogic (discussion, interview, brainstorming), Work with text (with textbook, with book), Laboratory work
  • Contact teaching - 52 hours per semester
  • Home preparation for classes - 48 hours per semester
  • Preparation for a credit (assessment) - 34 hours per semester
  • Preparation for an exam - 46 hours per semester
Learning outcomes
In this course, students will gain the necessary knowledge about magnetic fields, electromagnetic induction, linear DC and AC circuits, Maxwell's equations, and will master the basics of fluid mechanics, thermals, thermodynamics, and optics.
After completing the course, the student demonstrates knowledge of selected areas of physics - wave theory, electromagnetic field theory, optics, relativity theory, atomic nucleus physics, and quantum mechanics.
Prerequisites
Knowledge from the subject Physics I.

Assessment methods and criteria
Oral examination, Written examination

The student must demonstrate their understanding of the topics covered during the semester and during the final exam. Specific requirements will be communicated to students by their teachers in the first week of the semester.
