Course Goal / Objective
The purpose of this course is to familiarize the students with Newton s laws of motion and Euler-Lagrange equations; to show how these can be applied to various problems and how to solve the resulting equations. The studenst are expected to have taken the standart math and physics courses during their freshman and sophomore years.
Course Content
Variational anaysis, Lagrange equations using variational analysis, interaction between particles, moment of inertia, rocket motion
