Description
Abstract. The purpose of this work is to present various types of energy production from the basic physics point of view. A thematic course was created at our university, aiming environmental sciences and engineering students to develop skills in important areas of physics that are related to energy production and consumption. Selected topics were pinched from different areas of physics and organized to be presented in a way that permits the understanding of simple models and calculations related to different sources of energy. The contents of this course can be simplified to reach high school students.
