The Course includes 9 Chapters

  1. Introduction [Measurements, Conversion of Units and Dimensional Analysis]
  2. Vectors
  3. Kinematics [One dimension and Two Dimensions ]
  4. Dynamics [Newton`s Law of Motion]
  5. Applications of Dynamics [Friction Force, Circular Motion]
  6. Work and Energy
  7. Conservation of Energy
  8. Linear Momentum
  9. Rotational Motion

The Main Reference is the Book of “Physics for Scientists and Engineers with Modern Physics ” 4th Edition,  Douglas C. Giancoli

What Will You Learn?

  • Studying mechanics in the physics syllabus is essential for students as it lays the foundation for understanding various physical phenomena and principles. Here are the key concepts and skills students should learn from studying mechanics:
  • 1) Fundamental Concepts of Motion and Forces
  • 2) Applications of Mechanics in Real Life
  • 3) Problem-Solving Skills
  • 4) Understanding of Conservation Laws
  • 5) Interdisciplinary Connections
  • 6) Preparation for Advanced Studies
