PAOLA PIETRANGELI

Provide the basic elements for the methodological approach to the study of the principles and laws of
physics in order to give the tools to analyze, interpret and evaluate the physical phenomena object of
study during the degree course.
The approach to the study of physical quantities and their classification, both in
relation to the system of international units of measurement and the relative units of measurement adopted, which
mode of execution of operations and calculations between the same quantities.
The study of simple electrical and magnetic phenomena of the quantities that describe them represents
the scope of the proposed methodological approach. Introduction to the field concept of
strength and potential.
The practical applications are aimed at the study of electrical networks made up of basic components and
to the study of the motion of particles and conductors in the presence of electric and magnetic fields.

Student will acquire the following knowledge:
- structure of matter and the reactivity of molecules, especially those of biological interest.
- physics, including kinematics and dynamics, on understanding the forces, the conservation of energy in classical mechanics, electromagnetism and principles of thermodynamics of ideal gas systems.
- principles undergoing the electrical measurements
- statistics applied to scientific data

Knowledge of basic mathematics is essential

Traditional lesson. At the beginning of each lesson the topics previously discussed will be pointed out in order to allow the student to check the knowledge.

Attendance is mandatory

The exam is designed to test knowledge of the contents of chemistry, physics, and electronic measurements, through a written exam consisting of open-ended and multiple-choice questions. The medical statistics exam is administered orally, with required written feedback (formulas and graph descriptions).
The student must obtain a score of not less than 18/30, to demonstrate at least the minimum achievement of the mentioned objectives while maximum score (30/30 with honors) is reached by demonstrating excellent knowledges and autonomy of judgments.

CHEMISTRY AND INTRODUCTION TO BIOCHEMISTRY
Weak and strong bonds
Dilution of solutions
Isotopes
Electronic configuration of the atom
Hydrocarbons
Proteins structure
FISICS Kinetic energy:
Always increases with distance traveled
Always decreases with distance traveled
It is measured in Joules
It is zero during the fall of a heavy object
PHYSICS - The velocity of a body, initially at rest, after 2 seconds of free fall is:
19.6 m/s
19.6 m/s2
19.6 cm/s
19.6 cm/s2
PHYSICS - 3.5 atm corresponds approximately to:
3.5 * 107 Pa
3.5 * 76 mmHg
3.5 * 103 N/m2
3.5 * 105 Pa
MEASUREMENTS - A water heater is powered by 220 volts and dissipates power (approximately 1100 watts). Ignoring other dissipation mechanisms, what is the current strength flowing through its resistance?
1100 V
5 W
220 A
5 A
MEASUREMENTS - The resistance of two metal conductors with the same length and cross-section is generally:
The same
Lower in the one with the lower resistivity
Lower in the one with the higher resistivity
To answer, you need to know the intensity of the current flowing through it
