Description

Book Synopsis
Supplementary textbook for all levels of undergraduate physics courses in classical mechanics.

Trade Review
'This textbook serves as an introduction to standard undergraduate classical mechanics topics, including Newton's laws, energy, momentum, oscillators, rotational dynamics and angular momentum. … The real value of this book, however, lies in the extensive set of problems and worked solutions that many students tend to crave and as such is sure to be warmly welcomed.' Contemporary Physics
