Beginning with mechanics, we will explore kinematics to understand the movement, velocity, and acceleration of objects. We'll delve into dynamics to familiarize ourselves with forces and Newton's laws of motion, statics to comprehend the equilibrium of bodies, and the conservation laws of energy and momentum that underpin all mechanical processes.
Thermodynamics ushers us into the intriguing interplay between heat and temperature, where we'll discover how energy is transferred and transformed across different systems. We'll consider the first and second laws of thermodynamics and study heat engines, deepening our understanding of energy processes.
Oscillations and waves are the next step on our journey, where we'll admire the elegant nature of harmonic oscillators and analyze how waves, such as sound and light, propagate through various media. Optics will reveal to us how light interacts with matter, demonstrating phenomena of reflection and refraction.
Finally, electricity and magnetism will guide us through electric and magnetic fields, exploring electrostatics, electric current and resistance, and concepts such as magnetic fields and electromagnetic induction.
As the culmination, fundamentals of modern physics will illuminate the latest concepts that have revolutionized our view of the world, including atomic and nuclear physics, the basics of quantum mechanics, and the theory of relativity. This course is your ticket to understanding and appreciating the complexity of the world around us, laying the foundation for further education and innovation in science.
