Semester Offered: Second Semester
Full Course
Credits: 4 credits
Attribute: 4NS, QFR

A more in-depth study of Newtonian mechanics of particles and systems. Topics include Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formulations, oscillator systems, central force motion, rigid body motion, and noninertial reference frames. We will also make use of computational methods to solve for equations of motion.
