The Dynamics BookCourse

Introduction

Dynamics is the branch of physics that equips people to solve problems involving moving objects like automobiles, motors, athletes in motion, smoke particles in the atmosphere, projectiles, gear trains, water that is flowing, rockets, boats, mechanisms of all kinds, and robots.

By learning Dynamics, you’ll grok (deeply understand) motion plus you’ll be able to solve many problems involve loads and motion. In addition, you’ll be positioned to learn more advanced subjects that build on the fundamentals of dynamics.

Thus, start learning Dynamics today. If want, you can use this BookCourse because it provides a step-by-step path for learning the fundamentals so that you can say “I got this, this makes total sense, I can apply this, and I love this!

Getting Start on the Path

Dynamics: Dynamics is the branch of physics that relates loads and motion.

Modeling: Modeling is is the process of creating simplified versions of reality so that we can analyze complicated systems in the real world.

Force: A force is a model of a interaction between two bodies that we idealize as a push or pull acting at a point and having a direction.

Modeling of Objects: To model moving objects, engineers use particles, rigid bodies, and systems of particles.

Motion: To describe motion, Position, Velocity, and Acceleration: Engineers use position, velocity, and acceleration vectors to describe motion.

Power: Power is work/time taken as a derivative.

Cars: By applying a few ideas from dynamics, you can model cars. in the real world.

Gears: By applying a few ideas from dynamics, you can model real-world gear trains.

Mass and Weight

Velocity and Acceleration: We describe motion with position, velocity, and acceleration vectors.

Proving Things: As engineers, we justify conclusions with facts and logic because this gives us benefits: understanding, far fewer mistakes, effective communication, and solutions that work in the real world.
