Objetivos
1. To know the fundamental physical processes and phenomena and apply
the laws that allow understanding and solving practical problems in Physics.
2. To apply vector calculus, kinematics, Newton's laws, the principle of work-energy,
conservation of energy, conservation of momentum, statics of particles, fluids,
temperature scales and the amount of heat in the scope of introductory thermodynamics,
notions of electricity and electrical circuits, in solving “day to day” physics problems.

Fórmula de cálculo da classificação final
Continuous Assessment
Average grade of five tests on class (RT) - 75%
Average grade of five individual exercises on Moodle (ME) - 10%
Laboratory report carried out in a group of 3 elements
(to deliver on Moodle), with oral discussion (LR) - 15%
There are no minimum grades on each component of assessment.
FG = 75% RT + 10% ME + 15% LR >= 9,5 in 20
Exam
Alternatively students can be assessed by a final exam (E)
FG = E
