Objectives

Upon completion of this course, you will have learned the fundamentals of the physics underlying laboratory techniques, with topics including oscillations, wave motion, light, and the flow of liquids and gases.

After the course, you will:

Be familiar with the basic models and concepts of oscillatory motion and their applications.
Understand the modeling of wave motion and the behavior of waves at the interface of media.
Know the basic models related to light in terms of refraction, total reflection, and optics.
Be familiar with the basic models of light spectrum formation and their applications.
Understand the basic concepts related to the mechanics of liquids and gases and the fundamentals of modeling flowing material.
And you will be able to apply the above in solving examples and problems in the field of technology, as well as justify the solutions you have made.
