Classical Mechanics Volume 2

<p><b><i>Classical Mechanics</i> teaches readers how to solve physics problems; in other words how to put math and physics together to obtain a numerical or algebraic result and then interpret these results physically.</b></p><p>These skills are important and will be needed in more advanced science and engineering courses. However more important than developing problem-solving skills and physical-interpretation skills the main purpose of this multi-volume series is to survey the basic concepts of classical mechanics and to provide the reader with a solid understanding of the foundational content knowledge of classical mechanics. <i>Classical Mechanics: Kinematics and Uniformly Accelerated Motion</i> focuses on the difference between asking 'How does an object move?' and 'Why does an object move?'. This distinction requires a paradigm shift in the mind of the reader. Therefore the reader must train themselves to clarify 'Am I trying to describe how the object moves or why the object moves?'.</p>
