Didactic Concept
Part 1 of the following tutorial serves mainly as preparation for a course in electricity about transmission processes on a double line. The main topics are wave transmission, superposition and reflection.
Based on the assumption that mechanical systems are easier for newcomers to conceptualize than electrical ones, the listed topics are first applied to transmission processes within linear and circular tubes filled with gas.
In part 2 the same topics are repeated and applied to the electrical case of transmission processes on a double line, demonstrating the similarities and differences between these two systems.
The assumption and hope is that the invested extra time for studying the mechanical systems will pay off as added value in respect to deeper understanding, increased interest in topics of physics and technology and higher motivation for continuous learning.
