Engineering Mechanics: Dynamics Part 1
The Motion of Particles
Description
What is Dynamics?
Dynamics is the study of bodies in motion. In this course we will cover all the derivations you need for particle motion. In addition, we will work through many examples over each topic.
Feel like you are teaching yourself in class?
If you are currently taking Dynamics and you have no idea what your professor is talking about, sign up for this course! I teach in a simple, straightforward method with plenty of examples to help you learn. I show all the steps needed to solve the problems and I don't assume you know more than you do.
We will cover these topics:
Chapter 1 – Kinematics of a Particle
Rectilinear Motion
Curvilinear Motion – Rectangular Coordinates
Projectile Motion
Curvilinear Motion – Normal & Tangential Coordinates
Curvilinear Motion – Polar Coordinates
Relative Motion
Constrained Motion of Particles
Chapter 2 – Kinetics of Particles: Force & Acceleration
Newton’s 2nd Law
Equations of Motion
