For Undergraduates.
Course 1B: Theoretical Mechanics: The class meets three times a
week. The topics treated in successive terms are as follows:
Fall Term.—The fundamental laws of motion, force, and energy and
their applications to the Statics of material particles and solid bodies.
Winter Term.—The dynamics of the particle and an elementary
study of moments of inertia and the dynamics of the rigid body.
Spring Term.—The fundamental laws of pressure and motion in fluids.
The principles of hydrostatics. Theoretical and practical hydraulics.
Monday, Wednesday, Friday, 10-11. Mechanical Laboratory.
