Learning Outcomes
Details of Learning Activities
Learning Activities
Classroom learning activities involve the following topics from the Applied Physics:
Electromagnetism
Motion
Light and matter
Atoms and nuclei
Heating
Simulated work activities to consolidate the theory and concepts in relation to identifying effects of energy on machinery and materials in electrotechnology environment.
It is expected that students would require approximately 20% of course hours to be allocated for independent study to do project research on effects of energy on machinery and materials in an electrotechnology environment.

Overview of Assessment
This course will be assessed through a range of practical exercises, assignments and progressive tests.
Assessment Tasks
You are required to complete the following three assessment tasks:
Assessment task 1 (Assignment ) : 20%
• Written assignment to demonstrate an understanding of effects of energy on machinery and materials in an electrotechnology environment
• Practical exercises on load effects on machine power and efficiency
Assessment task 2 (Test ): 30%
Written test to demonstrate knowledge and understanding of Applied Physics concepts involving:
• Motion
• Force
• Friction
• Energy.
Assessment task 3 (Exam ): 50%
Written test to demonstrate knowledge and understanding of Applied Physics concepts involving:
