OBJECTIVES AND CONTENTS

Objectives of the Course Unit: The aim of this course is to teach thermodynamics, wave mechanics, light and optics from the basic subjects of physics and to illustrate and reinforce the knowledge with applications in engineering.
Contents of the Course Unit: The course covers the basic topics of physics such as thermodynamics, waves and optics. Providing information on the importance the 0th, 1st and 2nd laws of thermodynamics, the importance of the expansion and heat conduction in engineering by sampling these topics in engineering applications is a part of the content of the course. In addition to these, wave, mechanical wave and light, diffusion of light, interference, refraction etc. optical applications are included in the content of the course.

KEY LEARNING OUTCOMES OF THE COURSE UNIT (On successful completion of this course unit, students/learners will or will be able to)

Define the basic concepts of thermodynamics such as pressure, thermal equilibrium, temperature, number of moles, etc
Describe the zeroth, first and second laws of thermodynamics in detail and discuss the results of them.
Interpret the concept of entropy
Give examples of the vibration and wave movements they encounter in daily life
Write the mathematical expression of wave movements and know the mathematical solution of the wave equation
