Compulsory bibliography:

Recommended bibliography: For studying theory: a. The material presented by the practice instructor during the practices helps understanding and deepening knowledge in the subject. For those with gaps in prerequisite (high school physics) knowledge or those desiring a more precise and deeper understanding of the subject matter, we recommend independent processing of materials from some high school textbook series. For practicing calculation tasks: a.
