PHY 101: GENERAL PHYSICS I (MECHANICS)

COURSE CONTENTS
Space and time. Units and dimension. Vectors and Scalars. Differentiation of vectors
(displacement, velocity and acceleration). Kinematics. Newton's laws of motion (Inertial frames,
impulse, force and action at a distance, momentum conservation). Relative motion. Application
of Newtonian mechanics. Equations of motion. Conservation principles in physics (conservative
forces, conservation of linear momentum, kinetic energy and work, potential energy). System of
particles. Centre of mass. Rotational motion (torque, vector product, moment, rotation of
coordinate axes and angular momentum). Coordinate systems. Polar coordinates. Conservation
of angular momentum. Circular motion. Moments of inertia gyroscopes, and precession)
Gravitation (Newton's Law of Gravitation, Kepler's laws of planetary motion, gravitational
potential energy, escape velocity, satellites motion and orbits).
