Basic engineering physics and chemistry (5 cr)

Objective

You are able to systematically use the concepts of mechanics to solve physical and technical problems both theoretically and experimentally.

You master the basic concepts and calculations of chemistry and are able to apply your skills to your professional studies and requirements of working life.

Content

What are the key phenomena, quantities, units, definitions and laws of nature in mechanics? How can you use them to solve problems related to physics and technical engineering? How can you measure physical quantities, study the laws of nature and report the measurements?

What are the basic chemical quantities, units, definitions and natural laws? How is matter constructed? What happens when a chemical reaction occurs? What is the difference between inorganic and organic compounds? How are the chemical compounds divided into groups and how are they named? What are the properties of chemical substances?
