Università Roma Tre

The course introduces the scientific method and the fundamentals of metrology. It presents the basic methods for observation and measurement, in addition to the mathematical and numerical tools for the analysis of the experimental data. It proposes simple experiments for the development of the capabilities of abstraction and modelization of physical phenomena.
It presents newton's mechanics and the main electric and magnetic phenomena, together with the pertinent laws. The student becomes familiar with the basic models of classical physics and, in particular, with such concepts as physical quantity, field, conservation law. The student is able to apply the above concepts to the solution of simple problems by means of appropriate analytical procedures.
