Course objectives
This lecture is devoted to a review of fundamentals of the classical (nonquantum) physics. Its main aim is to demonstrate interconnections of its basic branches, its most important notions, laws and methods and its historical evolution. The first part of lecture is concentrated on the nonrelativistic physics of material particles, rigid bodies and on the continuum mechanics. The Lagrange and Hamilton formalism, variational principles and tensorial algebra and analysis are aplied on these subjects.
Syllabus
