Intermediate Mechanics

3 credits · Undergraduate

(3 hrs Lecture) This course is a three dimensional vector treatment of Newtonian particle dynamics with an emphasis on conservation principles. Topics include advanced problems in dynamics, such as friction, gravity, rotation of rigid bodies and moments of inertia, and damped and forced oscillations. Requisite Courses: PHYS-1101, PHYS-2105, and PHYS-2106 [prerequisite(s)].
