1 lecture provides theoretical background: precision & accuracy, systematic & random errors, uncertainty quantification (types A & B)
3 practical works provide applied situations: one in mechanics (period of a pendulum), one in chemistry (volume of gas produced during a reaction) and one in electricity (Ohm's law).

Electronic structures & periodic properties (atomic radius, ionization energy, electronegativity…)
Types of chemical bonds between atoms (ionic, covalent, metallic) and between molecules (dispersion force, dipole-dipole, hydrogen bond) involving molecule polarity (dipole moment, VESPR model…)
States of matter: gaseous state (concept of pressure including partial pressure & vapour pressure, ideal gas law, real gases, density, kinetic theory of gases, diffusion, effusion), condensed matter states (in particular crystallographic structures of solids).
Aqueous solutions (solubility, different types of concentrations, colligative properties)
Chemical equilibrium (advancement table for reversible reactions, equilibrium constant K & quotient of reaction Q, Le Châtelier's principle, introduction to thermochemistry)
Chemical Kinetics (rate of reaction, half-life, orders of reaction & rate laws, Arrhenius equation)

3- General curvilinear motion of a particle: rectangular components, projectile motion

4- Curvilinear motion of a particle: normal and tangential components, cylindrical components, circular motion

5- Two-particle motion analysis: dependent absolute motion, Relative motion

6- Kinematics of a rigid body: translation, rotation about a fixed axis, absolute and relative motions

- Algorithmic tools in and Python: variable, types, logic statements, loops

Language skills according to different CEFR level groups:

A1
Can establish basic social contact by using the simplest everyday polite forms of: greetings and farewells; introductions; saying please, thank you, sorry etc.
A2/B1
Has a repertoire of basic language, which enables him/her to deal with everyday situations with predictable content, though he/she will generally have to compromise the message and search for words.
Can produce brief everyday expressions in order to satisfy simple needs of a concrete type: personal details, daily routines, wants and needs, requests for information.
Can use basic sentence patterns and communicate with memorised phrases, groups of a few words and formulae about themselves and other people, what they do, places, possessions etc.
Has a limited repertoire of short memorised phrases covering predictable survival situations; frequent breakdowns and misunderstandings occur in non-routine situations.
Has enough language to get by, with sufficient vocabulary to express him/herself with some hesitation and circumlocutions on topics such as family, hobbies and interests, work, travel, and current events, but lexical limitations cause repetition and even difficulty with formulation at times.

B2
Can express him/herself clearly and without much sign of having to restrict what he/she wants to say.
Has a sufficient range of language to be able to give clear descriptions, express viewpoints and develop arguments without much conspicuous searching for words, using some complex sentence forms to do so.
Has a sufficient range of language to describe unpredictable situations, explain the main points in an idea or problem with reasonable precision and express thoughts on abstract or cultural topics such as music and films.

C1
Can select an appropriate formulation from a broad range of language to express him/herself clearly, without having to restrict what he/she wants to say.
