Teaching methodology The teaching activity is divided into three hours of theory (description and development of the topics presented in the syllabus) and two hours devoted to solving execices as direct aplications of the teory. Students will have access to resumés of each topic and a collection of related exercices that will be available in the web. Learning objectives of the subject Knowledge of: Newton's Laws, dynamics of particle systems, kinematic and dynamics of accelerated systems Understand the concepts of work and energy Understand the conservation laws.

Qualification system The subject is assessed by means of a midterm exam (P) and a final exam. The final exam can either embrace all the content covered throughout the term (F) or only the Electromagnetism (E). The final mark will be obtained as max {1/2(P+E), F} An extra exam will take place on July for students that failed during the regular semester. Bibliography Basic: Alonso, Marcelo; Finn, Edward J.
