The course will deal with the classical mechanics and it aims at learning the physical laws and the mechanical principles. It will be attached a great importance to the process for stating the problems and a minor importance to the numerical solution.
Lectures of theory and of application for the statment and solution of numerical problems will alternate. A very weight will be attached to the statment and literal solution of the problems.
Reference: standard; dimensions; units; vectors; vector addition, dot and cross product of vectors.
-Kinematics: position an dispalecement vector; velocity and acceleration; frame of reference; simple type of motion; relative motions.
- Dynamics of a perticle: force and mass; Newton’s laws.
- Some important forces: weigth; conctat forces; vincular forces; elastic force; impulsive force end momentum of a particle; power.
- Work and energy: the work-energy theorem and kinetic energy; conervative forces and potential energy.
- Dynamic of systems: center of mass; conservation of momentum of system of particles; work and energy for e systems.
- Rigid body: kinematics of rotation about e fixed axis; momentum of inertia; rotational kinetic energy; momentum of a force; angular momentum and conservation of angolar momentum of a rigid body; static equilibrium of a rigid body.
