Classical Mechanics

The book introduces the main ideas and concepts of Newtonian, Lagrangian and Hamiltonian mechanics, including the basics of rigid body motion and relativistic dynamics, at an intermediate to advanced level.

Classical Mechanics is a textbook for undergraduate students majoring in Physics (or Mathematics and Physics). The book introduces the main ideas and concepts of Newtonian, Lagrangian and Hamiltonian mechanics, including the basics of rigid body motion and relativistic dynamics, at an intermediate to advanced level. The physical prerequisites are minimal, with a short primer included in the ?rst chapter. As to the mathematical prerequisites, only a working knowledge of linear algebra, basic multivariate calculus and the rudiments of ordinary differential equations is expected.

Features
