The students have basic knowledge of dynamics. They know the fundamental concepts of point mechanics and rigid body as well as the conservation laws of physics and can apply them to solving physical problems. The students can describe important phenomena of dynamics verbal and mathematically. In addition, they are able to apply the acquired knowledge to concrete problems and to carry out corresponding calculations.
