Overall Educational Objective To acquire knowledge in the fundamental principles of physics while establishing a cross reference between them and the real-world applications, in order to use them in engineering applications.
Course Description This course includes the topics mostly related with mechanics part of fundamental physics. These topics are; significant figures, units and unit analysis, vectors, motion in one dimension, motion in multi dimensions, Newton’s Laws and their applications, work and kinetic energy, potential energy and conservation of energy, momentum and conservation of momentum, rotation of rigid bodies and dynamics of rotational motion.

Teaching MethodsStudents should watch the lecture videos posted in the blackboard system before they come to the classroom. The lecture contents are also posted in the blackboard system. The lectures are conventional lectures with instructor dominated. However, contributions of students are welcome. The interaction with the students (Q&A) will be maximized as much as possible.
Homework and ProjectsThere are non-mandatory homework

Course Administration giza@mef.edu.tr

Students are expected to attend 70% of the classes. There is no make-up for missed classes. The attendance performance is going to be reflected by 10% to the final grades. One make-up exam will be given at the end of the semester for those who miss an exam due to a legitimate excuse accepted by the instructor. The students are expected to pursue in this class with honesty and integrity. Disciplinary action will be pursued in all instances if academic dishonesty and cheating has occurred. Students with disabilities should consult the instructor for their special needs. For any question, please consult the instructor via mail (giza@mef.edu.tr).
