Similar considerations apply to the motion of a point in a curved line provided the displacements be always measured along the curve.

Excerpt from Elements of Theoretical Mechanics

The present edition differs considerably from the original edition of 1893-94, especially in the third part. It represents c: essentially the required course in theoretical mechanics as given in the Engineering Department of the University of Michigan. In order to keep within the bounds of a three-hour course extending through a year and within the reach of the mathematical attainments of a second or third year's college student it seemed best to confine the treatment largely to problems in one and two dimensions (except in Statics). Thus the motion of a rigid body about a fixed point had to be omitted, in spite of its importance. But rectilinear motion and rotation about a fixed axis have received more ample treatment, and at least some illustrations of plane motion have been given. It is hardly necessary to say that the text has been carefully revised throughout, and that the exercises have in part been modified and increased in number.

For the sake of completeness, certain fundamental subjects, such as simple and compound harmonic motion, the determination of centroids, motion under central forces, the theory of moments of inertia and principal axes, have been retained in greater fullness than might be thought necessary in so elementary a work. Where a shorter course is required the teacher will find no difficulty in retrenching. Thus, Arts. 129-148, 155-156, 170-174, 176-178, 234-236, 239-240, 248-249, 312-313, 324, 334, 382-388, 392, 411-417, 479-495, 509-511, 556-571, 637-663, 702-704 may be omitted, as well as many of the numerous applications and the more difficult exercises.
