COURSE DESCRIPTION
The Basic Physics course is the first of the general physics courses taught at the Faculty of Engineering. In the course the
kinematics and dynamics of the particle are studied; thus beginning the study of an important and fundamental part of
physics known as classical mechanics .
Classical mechanics is a field of physics that deals with the movement of bodies that are relatively large compared to
atoms and with the restriction that they move with a speed much less than the speed of light.
The fundamental concepts of kinematics such as position, velocity and acceleration are developed, which allows
introduction to the study of Newton's Laws, continuing with the study of the movement of a particle using concepts of
energy and linear momentum, as well as the fundamental theorems: Work and Energy and Impulse and Momentum of
Movement, also very important in other areas of physics.
The course includes laboratory practices, where emphasis is placed on experimentation and the measurement process, as a
verification of the laws of physics; as well as in the presentation of reports written as scientific articles.

GENERAL OBJECTIVE:
That the student acquires a clear understanding of the concepts, theorems and laws that govern the kinematics and
dynamics of the particle, as well as particle systems, to interpret, analyze and describe physical phenomena, within the
framework of classical mechanics; providing the foundations for the further study of rigid bodies and continuous media.

SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES:
At the end of the course, the student will be able to:
1. Properly use physical quantities and their units of measurement, scientific notation, factors of
conversion, significant figures and dimensional analysis.
2. Distinguish and define scalars and vectors, operate them with each other, analytically and graphically.
3. Describe analytically and graphically the movement of a particle in one dimension, with the variables
appropriate kinematics.
4. Describe analytically and graphically the movement of a particle in two dimensions, with the variables
appropriate kinematics.
5. Determine, analyze and explain the movement of a particle, using Newton's laws.
6. Define and use the concepts of work, power, energy and their conservation, to solve problems
physics and its applications
7. Define and use the concepts impulse, momentum and its conservation to solve
physics problems and their applications.
8. Reproduce and contrast through experimentation, under controlled conditions in the practices of
laboratory, the physical laws studied in the course.
9. Structure ideas to communicate the results and conclusions of physical experiments carried out in the
laboratory practices, through reports written as scientific articles.

METHODOLOGY OF IN-PERSON SECTIONS


Weekly, 3 hours and 20 minutes of theoretical class and 1 hour and 40 minutes of practice assisted by the assistant will be
taught. Depending on the progress of the content, the student will carry out the tasks that the teacher indicates. When the
teacher considers it necessary, he will perform short exams or worksheets in class to evaluate and continually improve the
acquisition of knowledge. Assignments, short tests and worksheets will be graded by the classroom assistant. To prepare
the laboratory practical reports, the Basic Physics Laboratory Guide will be used.

VIRTUAL COURSE METHODOLOGY


The course is scheduled according to a schedule that is presented on the Moodle platform in the Welcome area and basically
each unit is structured as follows:
Objective and Content, Video Classes, Animations, Problem Videos, Video Documentaries, Homework, Short Exam and
Forum.

The Moodle platform provides a forum option that is permanently enabled, the teacher will consult the forum to resolve
doubts from Monday to Friday at the indicated time.
The student will have a user manual that presents the content of the Moodle platform and its use; You can also go to the
Physics Department to make inquiries like any in-person course student.
The student must attend the midterm exams on the dates indicated in the academic performance evaluation. The virtual
course will be considered in the course repetition counter, starting from the second time the student is assigned it.

The minimum areaNOTE
of the course is 36 points and it is approved with a grade equal to or greater than 61 points.
The laboratory is approved with a grade equal to or greater than 6.1 points.
If the student freezes the course, they must carry out all the activities corresponding to the course area, except the
laboratory if it was approved and is still valid.
The lab grade may be frozen if it is passed and the course area is minimal.
To be eligible for the final exam, the student must pass the laboratory in addition to meeting the minimum zone.
