| PHYSICS 1 IS THE FIRST COURSE IN PHYSICS. ITS GOAL IS THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE SCIENTIFIC BASIS FOR THE UNDERSTANDING OF THE RELEVANT PHYSICAL PHENOMENA IN MECHANICS, WHICH ARE THE BUILDING BRICKS FOR MANY ENGINEERING APPLICATIONS. IN SUCH A WAY IT PROVIDES A STRONG KNOWLEDGE AND PROFICIENCY ABOUT THE BASICS OF MECHANICS, WHICH ARE THE STARTING POINT FOR THE TOPICS OF THE MORE ADVANCED SPECIALISTIC COURSES. AT THE END OF THE COURSE THE STUDENTS WILL GAIN KNOWLEDGE (ABILITY TO APPLY THE LEARNED SKILLS) ON: FUNDAMENTALS OF THE MEASUREMENT THEORY AND THE EXPERIMENTAL METHOD; ELEMENTS OF KINEMATICS OF POINT PARTICLES AND RIGID BODIES; BASIC PRINCIPLES OF THE DYNAMICS OF POINT PARTICLES AND RIGID BODIES; CONCEPTS OF WORK, KINETIC ENERGY, POTENTIAL ENERGY; CONSERVATION LAWS: ENERGY, LINEAR AND ANGULAR MOMENTUM. MAIN FEATURES OF OSCILLATING SYSTEMS. THE STUDENTS WILL ACQUIRE THE FOLLOWING MAIN ABILITIES: TO USE VECTOR ALGEBRA; TO USE DIMENSION ANALYSIS IN EQUATIONS DEALING WITH PHYSICAL QUANTITIES TO SOLVE SIMPLE PROBLEMS OF CLASSICAL MECHANICS, CONCERNING THE MOTION OF SYSTEMS OF POINT PARTICLES AND RIGID BODIES. |
| Prerequisites | |
|---|---|
| IN ORDER TO SUCCESSFULLY ACHIEVE THE ABOVE GOALS THE STUDENTS ARE REQUIRED TO POSSESS KNOWLEDGE AND COMPETENCE ABOUT BASIC NOTIONS OF ALGEBRA, GEOMETRY AND TRIGONOMETRY. |

| THE COURSE IS ARTICULATED IN 48 HOURS (6 CFU) OF FRONTAL LECTURES (THEORY AND PRACTICE), DISTRIBUTED IN 12 WEEKS, TAKING PLACE IN THE CLASSROOM ALSO USING MULTIMEDIA FACILITIES, AND IN 48 HOURS, DISTRIBUTED ALSO IN 12 WEEKS, OF TUTORING ACTIVITIES. THESE SUPPORTING ACTIVITIES ARE PLANNED FOR 3 GROUPS OF PARTICIPANTS, EACH ONE CONTAINING 1/3OF THE STUDENTS ENROLLED TO THE COURSE. IN ORDER TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR THE FINAL EVALUATION PROCEDURE AND THE GAIN OF THE COURSE CREDITS, STUDENTS ARE REQUIRED TO HAVE ATTENDED THE COURSE FOR THE 70% AT LEAST OF THE SCHEDULED HOURS OF THE FRONTAL LECTURES. 30% WILL BE DEVOTED TO EXERCISES |

| THE FINAL ASSESSMENT PROCEDURE IS DESIGNED TO EVALUATE THE STUDENTS' OVERALL KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING OF THE CONCEPTS PRESENTED IN THE COURSE AND THEIR ABILITY TO APPLY THIS KNOWLEDGE TO SOLVE SIMPLE PROBLEMS OF BASIC MECHANICS. THIS ASSESSMENT IS ACCOMPLISHED THROUGH THE FOLLOWING SEQUENCE OF STEPS: ONE FIRST WRITTEN MIDTERM EXAM ABOUT THE TOPICS DISCUSSED DURING THE FIRST HALF PART OF THE COURSE. AFTER THIS EXAM, THE SUCCESSFUL STUDENT IS EXEMPTED FROM A FURTHER WRITTEN EXAMINATION ON THE SAME TOPICS; ONE SECOND WRITTEN EXAM ABOUT ONLY THE TOPICS DISCUSSED DURING THE SECOND HALF PART OF THE COURSE. ONE FINAL ORAL EXAM. THESE WRITTEN EXAMS ARE PREPARATORY TO THE ORAL EXAM. THE TOPICS OF THE WRITTEN EXAMS ARE ANALOGOUS TO PROBLEMS AND EXERCISES SOLVED DURING THE FRONT LECTURES AND DISCUSSED IN DETAILS DURING THE TUTORING ACTIVITIES. THE FINAL ASSSSSMENT EVALUATION TAKES INTO ACCOUNT THE STUDENTS' SKILLS AND ABILITY TO IDENTIFY, ANALYZE, AND SOLVE THE PROPOSED PROBLEMS, USING THE CORRECT PROCEDURES AND ALGORITHMS, ABILITY TO COMMUNICATE EFFECTIVELY ALL THE DETAILS OF THE CHOSEN RESOLUTION PROCEDURE. THE WRITTEN EXAMS ARE EVALUATED ACCORDING TO A QUALITATIVE RANGES IN INCREASING ORDER: FAIL F, ALMOST ENOUGH E, ENOUGH, DISCRETE C, GOOD B, EXCELLENT A. THE STUDENTS ELIGIBLE TO BE EVALUATED IN THE FINAL ORAL EXAMINATION ARE ONLY THOSE ONES WHO HAVE EARNED A SCORE OF E, AT LEAST, IN BOTH THE WRITTEN EXAMS. ALL THE OTHER STUDENTS, INCLUDING THE STUDENTS NOT ENROLLED TO THE COURSE, HAVE TO ATTEND ONLY ONE WRITTEN EXAMS, REGARDING ALL THE TOPICS DISCUSSED IN THE COURSE AND THEY MAY CHOOSE TO REGISTER FOR ONE OF THE POSSIBLE DATES SCHEDULED IN THE OFFICIAL EXAMS CALENDAR APPROVED BY THE DEPARTMENT. ALSO THESE STUDENTS ARE ELIGIBLE TO EVALUATED AT THE FINAL ORAM EXAMS, ONLY IF THEIR SCORE IS GREATER (OR EQUAL) THAN E. THE FINAL ASSESSMENT SCORE IS EXPRESSED QUANTITATIVELY IN THIRTIETHS AND TAKES INTO ACCOUNT THE STUDENTS SCORES IN THE WRITTEN AND IN THE ORAL EXAMS. IN THE CASE OF STUDENTS WITH OUTSTANDING ABILITIES AND EXCELLENT PERFORMANCES THE EXAMINING COMMITTEE MAY AWARD THEIR PREPARATION WITH THE FINAL SCORE OF 30/30 CUM LAUDE. |
