Course Code: Course Title: Physics I Credits: 3

PHY 1113
Rationale of the course:
Knowledge of physics is considered to be the fundamentals for all engineering discipline. Specializing
in electrical and electronic engineering, strong understanding of the physics of waves and oscillation,
theories of optics, thermal and modern physics are highly essential. This introductory course on physics
will allow the students to learn the basic concepts of waves and oscillations, optics, thermal and modern
physics.
Course objectives:
1. To explore the areas of knowledge for electrical and electronic engineers in the fields of physics
of waves and oscillation, optics and thermodynamics.
2. To introduce the concepts of modern physics in order to familiarize the theories of quantum
mechanics and nuclear physics.

a SHM and its solution, total energy of a body executing SHM, average kinetic and potential energy of
a body executing SHM. LC oscillatory circuit, composition of two SHM. Simple pendulum, compound
and torsional pendulum, spring-mass system, two body oscillation and reduced mass, damped harmonic
motion and its different condition, forced oscillation and its different condition, resonance, equation of
