- 'It engenders an image of mechanics as a coherent whole, unlike some of its modular rivals.' -TES
Introducing Mechanics has been written to cover all the Mechanics requirements for single-subject A Level.
Through the nature of its style and contents it is ideal for both A- and AS-Level Mechanics.
Key Points:
· Clear text and style
· Includes worked examples so that students can work alone
· Exercises and examination questions
1. Modelling; 2. Vectors; 3. Kinematics; 4. Force; 5. Newton's law of motion; 6. Calculus in kinematics; 7. Kinematics in two and three dimensions; 8. Relative motion; 9. Friction; 10. Turning effect of forces; 11. Centre of mass; 12. Work, energy and power; 13. Momentum and impulse; 14. Jointed rods and frameworks; 15. Dimensional analysis; 16. Circular motion; 17. Elasticity; 18. Oscillatory motion; 19. Differential equations
