Textbook in PDF format

This user-friendly text shows how to use concise illustrations and college mathematics to understand and analyze fascinating dynamic phenomena in our everyday lives. Rather than providing a wide variety of disconnected topics in the field of dynamics, this book shows how these topics are fundamentally related and positioned in a framework. It also demonstrates how simple concepts can be derived and expanded to complicated design formulae for engineering structures. Among the mechanical topics included in the book are coordinate systems, rectilinear motion, curvilinear motion, angular motion, general motion, force and moment equilibrium, the principle of linear impulse and momentum, the principle of angular impulse and momentum, and the principle of work and energy
