This calculus-based subject covers topics in mechanics which forms the basis for further
studies in engineering (statics and dynamics) as well as physics. This subject will
cover experimental data analysis, vectors, kinematics, projectile motion, Newtonian
mechanics, kinetic energy, potential energy and work, conservation of energy, centre-of-mass
and momentum, conservation of momentum for systems of particles, rotational kinematics
and dynamics.
Learning Outcomes
- translate, comprehend, or interpret the information in a word problem while deciding
on the relevant principles and diagrams necessary to solve fundamental problems in
mechanics;
- select, identify, and use the appropriate data and physics principles to complete
a problem or task, including the manipulation of mathematical entities to solve fundamental
problems in mechanics;
- recognize information, concepts, and principles of fundamental mechanics, including
the correct use of physics terminology and definitions;
- integrate and analyse experimental data using mathematical techniques in order to
interpret experimental or observational data.
