Course Objectives: | The aim of this course is to provide basic physics information (physical quantities, vectors, work power and energy concepts, matter and electric charge, Coulomb's law, optics) and the interaction of the basic concepts needed in the field of health with matter Radiations, physical properties of radiation, biological effects on living tissue and environment. It is aimed to teach the effects of radiation, to provide the necessary basic knowledge for protection from radiation and safe use of radiations. |
The students who have succeeded in this course; 1. Physical quantities, vectors, work, power and energy events can be expressed. 2. Describe basic physical quantities. 3. Explains work, power, energy relationships. 4. Will be able to explain electromagnetism. 5. Define Gauss law. |
This course; Physical quantities (Measurement and unit systems), Vector and scalar quantities, Vector and scalar operations, Kinematic variables and motion, Shots, Newton's laws of motion, Newton's laws of motion, Work, power, energy Electrostatic (Electrical potential and capacitance), Current and Resistance (Ampere's law), Current and Resistance (Ohm), Work, Power, Energy law and Joule's law). |
