Outline and Purpose of the Course This course introduces the terminology and fundamental concepts of classical mechanics. It covers law of conservation involving energy and momentum and mathematical modeling of a system of particles.
Course Goals The goal of this course is to learn the concepts of analytic method for solving equations of motions which are the most common and important mathematical models in science and engineering and to develop an ability to apply the theories to solve a real world physics problem.
