Description
The aim of the Exercise Package Work, Energy, and Momentum is to put into practice and further expand your knowledge of the work-energy theorem and laws of conservation.
The Exercise Package Work, Energy, and Momentum consists of the following:
- 20 elaborate exercises that in 69 pages help you get more comfortable with the laws of conservation of energy and momentum, the work-energy theorem, perfectly (in)elastic collisions in two and three spatial dimensions, orbital mechanics and Kepler’s laws, gravitational potential energy and escape velocity, multi-body systems, calculus and integrals, conservative forces, relative motion, pendulum-like behaviour, the concept of power, and systems of variable mass. 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 the work-energy theorem, the laws of conservation, and Newton’s Second Law to different types of situations, and subsequently use all of that information to determine the motion 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 Work, Energy, and Momentum.
