This course aims to present the concepts and the basic principles of Classic Mechanics, and relativity, with emphasis on understanding and application in the analysis of real world situations . Students should have the ability to manipulate fundamental concepts and knowi how to apply them to solve problems. Students will be motivated to consider the principles of Mechanics in other areas of knowledge and in technology. Particular attention will be paid to training in problem solving by familiarizing students with heuristics and modes of thinking of experienced physicists.
Students should demonstrate good understanding of fundamental mechanical concepts (description of motion, mass, force, linear and angular momentum, energy) and relativity (relativity of space and time, space-time diagrams and relativistic momentum and energy) by correctly solving problems of direct application of these concepts, and by modeling and analysing, in terms of mechanics concepts, real world situations.

Compulsory presence in 75% of the exercise classes, for all students. Students who had attendance in previous years who show that they unable to attend TP classes cannot take part in the continuous assessment but will not be excluded of "frequência".
Evaluation has two alternatives
A: With continuous assessment
A1. [15 %] Weekly problem solving in TP by
group, with group solution delivery in the
classroom.
A2 . [15%] 3 homework problems in pre-assigned dates
to be delivered in 36h
A3 . [25% ] Mid-term test
A4 [45 %] Final test (on first exam date)
B- without continuous assessment
Remedial Exam[100 %]
Only in Alternative .
Exame[100%]
