Subject syllabus

Abstract:
The course complements the Physics I - Mechanics, molecular physics. Expands students' knowledge in the field of mechanical vibrations and waves.
Curriculum:
First Physical Acoustics - studying the mode of origin and propagation. It also deals with the reflection and absorption in different materials.
Second Musical acoustics - exploring sounds and combinations of the demands of the music.
Third Physiological acoustics - deals with the emergence of sound in the voice organ man and his perception of hearing.
4th Building acoustics - Examines good sound propagation in building materials and rooms.
5th Electroacoustics - deals with the recording, reproduction and dissemination of sound using an electric current.
