Course objectives
The aim of this course is to obtain a clear knowledge of the subject, oscillations and waves at university level. Emphasis is placed on the logical construction of the science disciplines and to acquire knowledge and skills needed for teaching physics at the primary school (it is included lectures to a large number of simple experiments and emphasized the relationship discussed the substance of the practice, nature, home, etc.).
Syllabus
  • I. Oscillation. Harmonics, free, damped and forced. Superposition of two harmonic oscillations DC and perpendicular to each other. Harmonic analysis of oscillations. Coupled oscillators. Transversal oscillations of string, the longitudinal oscillations of thin rod. Vibrations membranes and plates.
  • II. Waves. The emergence of a progressive nature of waves, wave equation. Energy progressive waves. Interference of waves. Wave package, group and phase velocity of waves. Plane wave, spherical wave, spread waves in space. Reflection and refraction of waves on a plane the two mediums, diffraction of waves. Doppler effect. Sound, basic characteristics of sound. Infrasound and ultrasound. The movement of sound sources with supersonic speed, shock wave.
  • III. Optics Basic ideas about light. The evolution of views on the nature of light, the dual nature of light. Speed of light. Basic laws of propagation of light. Light as electromagnetic vawe, its properties. Maxwell's equations in optics and resolution. Power transferred by electromagnetic wave, Poyntig's vector.Polarization of electromagnetic waves. Photometry. Basic photometric terms of quantity and units.Interaction of light and material. Consequences arising from Maxwell's theory for the interaction of light and non-absorbing medium. Fresnel's formula for the case isotropic non-absorbing medium. Optical properties of metals. Interference light, conditions for noticeable interference. Coherent light sources - lasers. Young's attempt, finges of the same inclination and the same thickness, thin-layer interference. The use of interference. Diffraction of light - the basic principles. Holography and its use. Geometrical optics. Essential elements of imaging systems, the characteristics of image magnification. Thin and thick lens, rendering equation. Optical defects and their correction. Simple optical instruments (magnifying glass, telescope, microscope). Human eye, basic concepts of physiological optics.
