COURSE LEARNING OUTCOMES:
In this course subject, it is expected that students must be able to:
1. Discuss the principles governing the motion of the particles, velocity, and acceleration.
2. Discuss the principles of Newton's Second Law of motion and its applications.
3. Explain the kinematics of rigid bodies, its energy and momentum.
what is dynamics of rigid bodies?
what is dynamics of rigid bodies?
Dynamics is the part of mechanics that deals with the analysis of bodies in motion. The first significant contribution to dynamics was made by Galileo (1564–1642). Galileo’s experiments on uniformly accelerated bodies led Newton (1642–1727) to formulate his fundamental laws of motion. Dynamics is divided into two parts: kinematics, which treats only the geometric aspects of motion, that is the analysis of forces causing the motion.
