Classical Mechanics enables students to make connections between classical and modern physics “ an indispensable part of a physicist’s education. The authors have updated the topics, applications, and notations to reflect today’s physics curriculum. They introduce students 3 to the increasingly important role that nonlinearities play in contemporary the chapter. applications of classical mechanics. New numerical exercises help students • Features a more extensive coverage of radiation theory than develop skills in the use of computer techniques to solve problems in physics. most texts at this level. Mathematical techniques are presented in detail so that the text remains fully accessible to students who have not had an intermediate course in classical Contents mechanics. 1. Vector Analysis 2.
