Synopsis

For one/two-semester, sophomore/junior-level courses in Classical Mechanics.

Designed to bridge the gap between introductory college physics and advanced mechanics which will give a strong basis for future work in applied and pure mechanics, especially advanced physics such as quantum mechanics, statistical mechanics and optics, this text provides a complete account of the classical mechanics at an intermediate level―with an option of using the state-of-the-art computer-based technology―e.g., Mathcad―in calculations, plots and graphs.

About this title

From the Back Cover:

Featuring state-of-the-art computer based technology throughout, this comprehensive book on classical mechanics bridges the gap between introductory physics and quantum mechanics, statistical mechanics and optics--giving readers a strong basis for their work in applied and pure sciences.Introduces Mathcad, using it in to do mathematical calculations, solve problems, make plots and graphs, and generally provide more in-depth coverage and a better understanding of physics. Pays special attention to such topics of modern interest as nonlinear oscillators, central force motion, collisions in CMCS, and horizontal wind circulation. For physicists and astronomers.
