Aim:
The course gives an orientation to the students about basic relations in classical mechanics and gives some skill in the solution of mechanical problems.
|
|
Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered)
Calculus TATM72, Algebra TATM31, or equivalent.
Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding.
|
|
Organisation:
Teaching is done in lectures and problem classes. The lectures present the theoretical basis and principally important examples. The problem classes are devoted to problem solving and skills excercises.

Course contents:
Course content:
Kinematics (linear and plane movement), relative motion (uniform relative translation and rotation, inertial forces), dynamics of particles (The law of inertia, mass, momentum, Newton's second and third laws, the concept of force, frictional forces, angular momentum, central forces), work and energy (work, power, kinetic and potential energy, conservative forces, potential energy curves) the dynamics of particle systems (motion of the center of mass, reduced mass, momentum and kinetic energy for systems of particles, laws of conservation, systems of variable mass), dynamics of the rigid body(angular momentum and moment of inertia, the equation for rotation of a rigid body), oscillatory motion(simple harmonic motion, the mathematical and physical pendulums, coupled oscillators), fluid mechanics (Archimedes' principle, the continuity equation, Bernoulli's principle, Pascal's principle).
