Mechanics 1. [Thornton].

The systematic study of Theoretical Mechanics offered in this
course presupposes the completion of courses equivalent to Mathematics
1 and 2 and Physics 1. The topics treated in the successive
terms are as follows:

Fall Term.—Statics of the material particle and of solid bodies.

Winter Term.—Dynamics of the particle; elementary treatment
of the dynamics of the rigid body.

Spring Term.—Dynamics of the rigid body; attractions and
potential.

Free use is made of the calculus, and no student will be admitted
to the class, who has not a good working knowledge of this
branch of pure mathematics. Especial attention is given to the
mechanical problems which arise in engineering practice. Lectures,
10-11, Monday, Wednesday, Friday.
