General physisc for informatics 0800-FIZINF-1

30 h of lectures + 60 h own study 30 h of exercises + 30 h own work on programming project and presentation

K_W02 Students know fundamental laws of general physics. He/she knows universality of these laws. Students know what physical process underline functioning of computers and transmission of information. Students know units of mass, length, temperature, electrical quantities, properties (electical , magnetic) of materials critical for understanding technical issues related to informatics and computer technology. W1: Students know basic physical laws, can formulate then and describe main concepts: - law of gravity (Newton) - principles of dynamics (Newton) - Coulomb law (elelctricity) - equivalence of work and energy - enenrgy conservation law - charge conservation law - conservation of momentum and angular momentum - Ohm's law - Kircghoffs laws - Faraday's laws (electrolysis), a priciple of lead battery function - Mawell's laws (integral form) - optics laws W2: - He/she has an elementary knowledge about description of skales of physical quantities, masses, distances, temperature, electrical units, properties of material reevant to informatics. W3: - studens have advenced knowledge on: - waves - interference - polarisation of waves - reception of logh and sound - elelctromagnetic waves, and spectrum of EM waves - postulates of quantum mechanics (qualitatively) - tunneling efect - electron spin (quest for spintronics) - band theory of solids (elelctrnic structure) - isolators, conductors, semiconductors - how a simple electrical engine works (lorentz force) - how diod and trasistor work - how interated circuits are made - how data are registered on Cd and DVD - how picture is produced on LCD screen - how WiFi works (LC circuit, resonace) - Giant Magnetoresistivity Effect and its applitaion in high density HD drives - total internal reflection - how iber optics works - heat dissipation and cooling probles in computer rooms (Landauer principle) W4: He/She knows a concept of qubit and new possibiliteis in information processing related to quantum informatics (cryptography) W5: Students will understand the role of physical phenomena i information processing: - field transistor (tunneling effect) - LCD screen (light polarisation, organisation of liquid crystals) - LED diod (elctroluminescence) - telecommunication via fiber optics These learnig outcomes in tis cours are fulfilment of K_W02 and K_W03 - K_W03 Studens will understand why certain physical phenomena are critical for information processing.

U1: Students can model numerically simple physical phenomena, for example, point mass motion in gravitational field, They can graphically present results of the modeling. for example - a flight of a rocket - motion in a gravitational field (projectiles) U2: Knows how to solve a simple differential equation (HO, LC circuit) U3: Knows how to present data on plots. U4: Knows how to transform simple phsyical formulas and how to reas relations between quanties form formulas. U5. Can explain physical basis of functioning of main elecments of PC. U6: Can solve computatinal task working alon or in a team. Thes are skills related to K_U01, K_U04, K_U06, K_U24 KU_01

K_K04, K_K06 K1: Students understand that human technological activites change our environment, both physical parametrs (global warming) and chemical parameters are modified by humans. Can participate in technical discussion related to complex physical phenomena. K2: Students undertand the need for reduction of enengy consuption , especially during data processing. They undrerstand why miniaturisation and nanotechnology are so important. K3: Studens fill resposibity fo rthe outcome of team work. K4: He/she unsderstand the role of physics in modern technology and the constant demand for new research in this field as a prerequistite factor in progress in the computer technology. Students work for one semester in small (4 persons) workgroup, thus they develop better skills in team work. They develop responsibiility for the project.

The lecture will be presented at high paste, typical PowetPoint slides will be used for most of the topics, but numerous physical experiments will illustrate presented laws of physics. Students will actively participate both in demos and answering questions posed by the lecturer.
