Syllabus

  • Week 1 - Course Introduction; Particle Kinematics; Particle Kinetics – Newton’s Laws and Euler’s Laws; Motion of Particles and Mass Centers of Bodies
    In this section students will learn about particle kinematics, Newton's Laws and Euler's Laws, motion of particles and mass centers of bodies.
  • Week 2 - Work-Energy Principle for Particles/Systems of Particles
    In this section students will learn the work-energy principle for particles/systems of particles, impulse and momentum, impact, conservation of momentum and Euler's 2nd Law - Moment of momentum.
  • Week 3 - Planar (2D) Rigid Body Kinematics I
    In this section students will learn about planar (2D) rigid body kinematics, relative velocity equation, rotation about a fixed axis, instantaneous center of zero velocity, and relative acceleration equations.
  • Week 4 - Planar (2D) Rigid Body Kinematics II
    In this section students will continue to learn about planar (2D) rigid body kinematics, relative velocity equation, rotation about a fixed axis, instantaneous center of zero velocity, and relative acceleration equations.
  • Week 5 - Planar (2D) Rigid Body Kinetics I
    In this section students will learn about planar (2D) rigid body kinetics, translation, moment of momentum - angular momentum, and equations of motion.
  • Week 6 - Planar (2D) Rigid Body Kinetics II
    In this section students will continue to learn about planar (2D) rigid body kinetics using the Work-Energy Method.
  • Week 7 - Planar (2D) Rigid Body Kinetics III
    In this section students will continue to learn about planar (2D) rigid body kinetics using the Impulse-Momentum Method and Conservation of Momentum.
