The main objective of this course is to teach you to pose and solve simple physics problems. The areas of application are material point mechanics and geometric optics.
Mechanics of the material point :
- Static of forces: studies of mechanical systems in equilibrium.
- Kinematics: study of the movement of bodies independently of the causes that generate them.
- Dynamics: links between the causes of movement and the movement itself.
- Work and energy: work of forces (conservative and non-conservative), kinetic energy theorem, mechanical energy theorem and their applications.
Geometric optics:
- Propagation of light (Fermat's principle, Snell-Descartes laws, index of refraction),
- Image formation and optical systems (stigmatism, Gaussian approximation, mirrors, thin lenses, dispersive systems, centered systems, optical instruments)
Algebra I linear systems

This course is an introduction to linear algebra (formalized in S2) based on intuition from plane and space geometry. It includes an introduction to matrix calculus.
The EU also introduces the basic language of polynomials.

Geometry in the plane, space and complex plane
ECTS
4 credits

Faculty of Science
This UE aims at working on the geometry of the plane, its objects but also the demonstrations. The UE also aims at introducing complex numbers. The parts geometry and complex numbers represent each half of the UE.
- objects of plane geometry: points, lines, vectors, angles, circles, triangles, etc.
- geometric transformations of the plane: symmetries, homotheties, rotations, translations.
- work on mathematical demonstration
- introduction of complex numbers, geometric interpretation, calculation with complex numbers
Analysis I functions of one variable and sequences
ECTS
5 credits
Component
Faculty of Science
The aim of this course is to clarify the notions of limits of sequences and functions, to deepen the study of sequences and functions, and to study the notions of continuity and derivability of functions, as well as to introduce the main "usual" functions.
