PHYS0919-1

Physics: part 3


Duration :60h Th
Credits/ECTS :
2e candidature ingénieur commercial5,5
2e année du grade de bachelier en ingénieur commercial5,5
Holder(s) :Pierre Deneye
Course contents : In this course we will deal with the following chapters :
a)electricity, also included electromagnetism and b) modern physics. Here are the main topics that will be developed :
1. Electricity : electrostatics, electric current, electromagnetism (magnetic field, its sources, electromagnetic induction, alternating current)
2. Modern physics : quantum physics, atomic physics, relativistic physics
3. Celestial mechanics
Course objective : This course deals with a part of physics. As for the other 2 parts, it aims at giving students some knowledge of the fundamental laws that govern physical phenomena as well as physical procedures used in the industry. This course constitutes a prerequisite for the advanced applied sciences courses.
Prerequisites : SC 814 Physics II
Organization : Multimedia presentation supported by an excellent reference textbook (see basic bibliography) which is adopted to teaching basic science to business engineers. A power point application will cover all the course and a syllabus with the copy of the transparences will be available. The powerpoint application will be completed with numerous animations replacing lab experiments. As far as possible a real-life experiment will be presented in class. Many exercises and concept applications will ba detailed during the course.
Written notes : - Harris BENSON, "Electricité et électromagnétisme", (de Boeck-Université).
- Harris BENSON, "Physique Moderne", (de Boeck-Université).
- CD-ROM : Physique interactive (Studi).
- CD-ROM : Physique animée (UCL 1996, 1999).
- CD-ROM : par l'expérience.
Assessment : 1st session assessment : a written examination with questions covering the whole course. It will tackle the theory a s well as the underlying applications. Students may ask to take an oral examination.
2nd session assessment : idem
prolonged 2nd session assessment : idem
