Excerpt from The Dynamics of Particles and of Rigid, Elastic, and Fluid Bodies: Being Lectures on Mathematical Physics
The second part is devoted to the Motion of Rigid Bodies, particularly to their rotation, a matter of the greatest importance practically, especially to the engineer, but one which is often avoided by the physical student. To this subject Maxwell again called the attention of physicists, and created a charming instrumental demonstration in his celebrated Dynamical Top. To this the writer has ventured to add a Small detail, which permits of a number of interesting additional verifications. A number of practical illustrations, of interest to the physicist and engineer, are also included.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a concise overview of the field of dynamics, which is concerned with the motion of objects under the influence of forces. The author begins by examining the concepts of kinematics, which describe the motion of objects without considering the forces that cause them to move. This includes the concepts of velocity, acceleration, and trajectory. The author then introduces Newton's laws of motion, which provide a framework for understanding how forces affect the motion of objects. The author provides numerous examples to illustrate the application of these laws to a variety of physical phenomena. The book concludes with a discussion of the conservation of energy and momentum, which are two fundamental principles that govern the behavior of objects in motion. The author's approach is clear and concise, and the book is well-suited for students of physics and engineering. By providing a solid foundation in the principles of dynamics, this book can aid readers in understanding a wide range of physical phenomena in nature.
