Heat and Electricity (5cr)

Objective

After completing the course the student can:


Fluid mechanics and
- define the basic concepts related to pressure, fluid flow and temperature

Fluid mechanics and Heat
- give examples on pressure and flow measurement methods
- measure temperature with different methods
- determine the density of an object, flow speed and the pressure generated by a pump
- apply Bernoulli´s equation in calculations
- use the concepts of heat and heat flow and apply them in problem solving

Electricity
- use the basic concepts of electrostatics and DC -circuits and apply them in problem solving
- read DC -circuit diagrams and solve unknown physics quantities in them
- use Kirchhoff´s laws to solve currents in a circuit
- measure current, voltage and the input power of a DC motor/pump
