Classical mechanics is concerned with the set of physical laws describing the motion of bodies under the influence of a system of forces. The study of the motion of bodies is an ancient one, making classical mechanics one of the oldest and largest subjects in science, engineering and technology. It is also widely known as Newtonian mechanics.Newton's three laws of motion are important to classical mechanics. *The first law says that, if there is no external force (meaning there is no pushing, gravity, or any sort of power), things that are stopped will stay stopped or un-moving, and things that are moving will keep moving. Before, people thought that things stopped if there was no force present. Often, people say, Objects that are stopped tend to stay stopped, and objects that are moving tend to stay moving, unless acted upon by an outside force, such as gravity, friction, etc.... *The second law says how a force moves a thing. The net force on an object equals the rate of change of its momentum. *The third law says that if one thing puts a force on another thing, the second thing also puts a force on the first thing. For example, if you jump forward off a boat, the boat moves backward. Often, people say, For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. *Other laws include .Law of Conservation of Energy: Energy cannot be created nor destroyed, and instead changes from one form to another; for example, mechanical energy turning into heat energy. .Law of Conservation of Momentum: In the absence of external forces such as friction, when objects collide, the total momentum before the collision is the same as the total momentum after the collision. .Bernoulli's Principle: Within a continuous streamline of fluid flow, a fluid's hydrostatic pressure will balance in contrast to its speed and elevation. In our investigation of classical mechanics we shall study many different types of motion, including: Translational motion--motion by which a body shifts from one point in space to another ( e.g., the motion of a bullet fired from a gun). Rotational motion--motion by which an extended body changes orientation, with respect to other bodies in space, without changing position ( e.g., the motion of a spinning top). Oscillatory motion--motion which continually repeats in time with a fixed period ( e.g., the motion of a pendulum in a grandfather clock). Circular motion--motion by which a body executes a circular orbit about another fixed body [ e.g., the (approximate) motion of the Earth about the Sun]. Of course, these different types of motion can be combined: for instance, the motion of a properly bowled bowling ball consists of a combination of translational and rotational motion, whereas wave propagation is a combination of translational and oscillatory motion. Furthermore, the above mentioned types of motion are not entirely distinct: e.g., circular motion contains elements of both rotational and oscillatory motion. |

I'm a fresh physics graduate. I could teach physics, math and I can try in English language too. Is there vacancy in any school in Akure please? |
the two main branches of mechanics are classical mechanics and quantum mechanics. We'll try and explain them one after the other |
extracted from wiki Mechanics is an area of science concerned with the behaviour of physical bodies when subjected to forces or displacements, and the subsequent effects of the bodies on their environment. It is a branch of classical physics that deals with particles that are either at rest or are moving with velocities significantly less than the speed of light. It can also be defined as a branch of science which deals with the motion of and forces on objects. Mechanics is a branch of physics which looks at objects that are moved by forces (including other bodies, or forces of nature) |
jimohibrahim:I'm looking forward to it |
cc jimohibrahim |
let's discuss physics ideas, theories, formulas, questions and answers |
wow! I'm so glad i found this thread, I've been looking for something like this |
can you answer some by yourself. I plan to create a thread for physics questions and answers and i need to know if such thread already exist |
joephemzyz:peace unto you sir |
joephemzyz:Unn nsukka(in Affiliation with college of education,ikere |
GoggleB:wow! sango,Akure |
GoggleB:igoba,akure? |
jimohibrahim:of course |
jimohibrahim:i am not understanding. Don't eat with both hands. i.e. don't use everything to buy phone |
jimohibrahim:i dey serious o,at all at all na im bad pass |
jimohibrahim:abeg send me the tithe, Akure is not smiling |
jimohibrahim:thank God |
jimohibrahim:thank God you know it's me. I was expecting some serious yabbing. ![]() jimohibrahim:thank God you know it's me. I was expecting some serious yabbing. |
jimohibrahim:what has yahoo boys got to do with this |
decibelz95:You're on point. One drive is dope, synchronization is awesome |
kaen1317:my Nokia Lumia 520 has inbuilt yahoo mail, which I'm using along with gmail and twitter, all inbuilt |
i use Nokia Lumia 520 and I'm really enjoying it, i love the fact that it's backing up all my data. The only thing I miss about Android is gta |
Coyotejack:yeah, she was actually talking about apprenticeship, but I've never heard about it in this kind of profession |
I wonder too o |
hi everyone! please permit me to go straight to the point. I have a friend who said that she wants to go and learn surgery and treatment at the hospital. I was so surprised because this girl is a SSCE holder and I've never heard of someone learning surgery without going to the university. Though she's learning the selling of drugs at a chemist, is it possible to learn surgery at the hospital too without going to school? |
This plan is tha bomb,I almost thought it's more than the 1.5gb |
What about their satellite campus at Adeyemi college of education, ondo? |
