Course Description
The objective of this course is to familiarize students with the principles of periodic motions and to appreciate their applications in life and in technical equipment. The examples and problems selected for the course give students the necessary knowledge and skills to read and analyze scientific data with a proper understand. The first chapters lay down the foundation that is absolutely necessary to understand the wave phenomenon that appears in later chapters.
On this basis, after finishing this course, student will be able to:
- Describe oscillatory motion, simple harmonic motion, mass-spring system, simple pendulum, and damped and forced oscillation, resonance effect and calculate the parameters involved in motions classified as being oscillatory.
- Recognize the concept of wave and identify the properties of waves, wave velocity, energy, and related equations.
- Define wave, explain wave characteristics: superposition of waves, wave reflection and transmission, traveling and standing waves.
- Explain types of waves (sound and light waves) and identify the characteristic properties of waves, Doppler effect applied to mechanical waves, resonance, interference, and beats and diffraction phenomena.
- The student will suitably prepared for studies beyond A Level in Physics, in Engineering or in.
