Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is an introduction to fundamental dynamics from a numerical perspective. It begins by presenting the history of Newtonian physics and dynamics to contextualize the study of this field of physics, discussing the three fundamental quantities of length, time, and mass. Then, the author explains various methods of measuring velocity, speed, and acceleration, and provides a concise definition of these terms. The author does an excellent job defining the concept of a constant force in dynamics, and how to calculate it, in addition to explaining the ideas of average speed and uniform acceleration. These concepts are all illustrated with helpful diagrams and numerical examples. The book introduces a number of thought experiments that support an in-depth study of the concepts of displacement, momentum, and kinetic energy, which are all essential ideas in the field of dynamics.
