Introduction to classical mechanics :
Morin, David J.
Introduction to classical mechanics : with problems and solutions - South Asia Edition - Cambridge, UK ; New York : Cambridge University Press, 2008. - xvii, 719 pages : illustrations ; 25 cm
This textbook covers all the standard introductory topics in classical mechanics, including Newton's laws, oscillations, energy, momentum, angular momentum, planetary motion, and special relativity. It also explores more advanced topics, such as normal modes, the Lagrangian method, gyroscopic motion, fictitious forces, 4-vectors, and general relativity. 1. Strategics for solving problems --
2. Statics --
3. Using F = ma --
4. Oscillations --
5. Conservation of energy and momentum --
6. Lagrangian method --
7. Central forces --
8. Angular momentum, Part I (Constant L) --
9. Angular momentum, Part II (General L) --
10. Accelerating frames of reference --
11. Relativity (Kinematics) --
12. Relativity (Dynamics) --
