Upon successful completion of the course the student will be able to
1) understand and describe basic principles of Physics such as principles of Thermodynamics and the principle of Archimedes, various natural phenomena such as refraction and polarization of light and various physical systems such as the hydrogen atom.
2) has developed an understanding of basic quantities of Physics (such as pressure, enthalpy, free energy, focal length, light absorption, light activity, radioactivity, etc.) related to the areas of Physics mentioned, their units of measurement, their usefulness, how they are measured experimentally and how to calculate them using mathematical formulas.
3) is able to construct simple, approximate mathematical models that describe natural phenomena and, at a basic level, to apply calculus in Physics. 4) be familiar with the basic principles of experimental Physics methodologies applied to issues related to biological sciences.
5) collect experimental Physics data and analyze them with basic statistical analysis methods
