An introduction to mechanics Daniel Kleppner ,Robert J. Kolenkow.

By: Contributor(s): Material type: TextTextPublication details: New York : Cambridge University Press, 2010.Description: xxii, 546 pages : illustrations ; 25 cmISBN:
  • 9780070647787
Subject(s): DDC classification:
  • 531  KLE
Contents:
Vectors and kinematics: a few mathematical preliminaries -- Newton's laws: the foundations of Newtonian mechanics -- Momentum -- Work and energy -- Some mathematical aspects of force and energy -- Angular momentum and fixed axis rotation -- Rigid body motion and the conservation of angular momentum -- Noninertial systems and fictitious forces -- Central force motion -- The harmonic oscillator -- The special theory of relativity -- Relativistic kinematics -- Relativistic momentum and energy -- Four-vectors and relativistic invariance.
Summary: Intended for undergraduate students with foundation skills in mathematics and a deep interest in physics, it systematically lays out the principles of mechanics: vectors, Newton's laws, momentum, energy, rotational motion, angular momentum and noninertial systems, and includes chapters on central force motion, the harmonic oscillator, and relativity. Numerous worked examples demonstrate how the principles can be applied to a wide range of physical situations, and more than 600 figures illustrate methods for approaching physical problems. The book also contains over 200 challenging problems to help the student develop a strong understanding of the subjec
