Elementary Treatise on the Dynamics of a Particle and of Rigid Bodies

The book defines and explains the uniplanar motion of particles of both constant mass and also of varying mass. It also discusses two dimensional motion of rigid bodies in cartesian and polar coordinates using differential and integral calculus and provides horough understanding of dynamics of a particle and of rigid bodies for degree courses of mathematics, science and engineering.The author, a well known mathematician, has used his mathematical acumen in the explanation of concepts and picking examples and exercises to provide sound logical grounding to students. It is an essential book for science and engineering students to learn and master the fundamentals of the covered topics.Key Features:Covers linear & rotational motions of particles & rigid bodies.Explanatory discussion of particle & rigid dynamics applying calculus.Expects students to have good knowledge of calculus.
