Classical Mechanics. Third Edition - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

Classical Mechanics has been the standard in advanced classical mechanics courses for thirty years. It emphasizes formulations important for the study of modern physics which prepare students to apply the principles and mathematical techniques of classical mechanics in later study. By deepening and building student understanding of classical mechanics, the text helps students make the connections between classical and modern physics. In the new edition, Beams Medal winner Charles Poole and John Safko have updated the text to include the latest topics, applications, and notation, to reflect changes in today's physics curriculum. They introduce students to the increasingly important role that nonlinearities play in contemporary applications of classical mechanics. New numerical exercises help students to develop skill using computer applications to solve problems in physics. Mathematical techniques are presented in detail so that the text remains fully accessible to students who have not had an intermediate course in classical mechanics.
