Description
The aim of the Exercise Package Rotational Motion is to put into practice and further expand your knowledge of various concepts related to rotational motion, such as torque, angular momentum, and moment of inertia.
The Exercise Package Rotational Motion consists of the following:
- 20 elaborate exercises that in 75 pages help you get more comfortable with the angular equations of motion, torque and frictional torque, mass moment of inertia, orbital and spin angular momentum, the law of conservation of angular momentum, Newton’s Second Law for rotation, calculus and solving integrals and differential equations, sliding and rolling of objects, center of mass calculations, orbital mechanics, multi-body systems, the Coriolis effect in non-inertial frames of reference, precession, and vector calculations in two and three spatial dimensions. All the exercises are original creations of the author;
- Detailed figures and schematics, which are all entirely designed by the author, to provide visual support to the reader;
- An explanation of the strategy of how to tackle the exercise;
- A step-by-step guidance of not only how to apply Newton’s Second Law of linear and rotational motion and the various laws of conservation to a number of different physical situations, and subsequently use all of that information to determine the motion or position of an object, but also how to numerically arrive at the final (or intermediary) result;
- An explanation of the mathematical tools, in case they are required to solve the exercise.
Intended Audience
Anyone who is deciding to start a degree in higher education that offers an introductory course in classical mechanics can benefit from the Exercise Package Rotational Motion.
