Course Content
This course covers the fundamental concepts of physics, quantities, measurement units, and scalar and vector quantities; three-dimensional vector representations and vector operations are examined. Topics such as motion in one and two dimensions, velocity, acceleration, uniformly accelerated motion, free fall, and projectiles are covered. Newton's laws of motion, friction force, work-power-energy relationships, and the basic principles of impulse and momentum are explained. At the end of the course, the physical fundamentals of firearms and tool marks in the context of forensic physics are evaluated.
Objectives of the Course
The objective of this course is to enable students to gain the competence to analyze mechanical systems by comprehensively teaching fundamental physics concepts such as scalar–vector quantities, motion, force, energy, momentum, and friction. By the end of the course, students are expected to be able to relate physical principles to situations encountered in firearms, ballistic systems, and forensic investigations.
