Fall 2025 Lecture Distance Learning Lower Division
Fundamental concepts and principles of bodies in motion, with applications to aeronautical and astronautical problems. Subjects covered include rectilinear motion, curvilinear motion, rotation, and plane motion. The static equilibrium and quasistatic equilibrium situations are treated as a part of motion in which the acceleration is zero. Problems involving impact, separation, work, and energy are considered.
Learning Outcomes1Compute velocities and accelerations for any type of motion.
2Compute angular velocities and accelerations of rigid bodies.
3Model forces and apply Newton's Laws in particle dynamic problems.
4Model forces and solve general statics of bodies problems.
