      Basic information about the course Page

      The course is the first course in university physics and provides conceptual basis for classical mechanics and further studies in physics. We will learn Newton's laws and how to apply them to solve simple static and and dynamical problems. We will also discuss periodic motion and rotational motion with angular momentum.Isaac Newton painting
