Objectives
This theoretical-practical course takes place in a laboratory environment in order to allow students to experimentally verify and confirm the electrical phenomena included in the syllabus.
The main objectives of this course are to
- Identify the symbols and main quantities of an electrical circuit;
- Explain and apply Ohm's law;
- Identify and correctly use measuring devices;
- State and apply Joule's law;
- Identify the quantities energy and power and their respective units of measurement.
