Students will be informed about basic principles of mechanics and hydromechanics based on examples that we find in the human body, as well as about the basics of radiological techniques and radiation protection.
Students will be qualified to understand basic physical principles in the human body with the goal of understanding more complex content likewise.
Force and energy. Hydrodynamics and hydrostatics. Electromagnetic radiation. Radioactivity. Organisation of radiation protection in the Republic of Croatia. Radiology devices and techniques.
