Synopsis
Excerpt from Dynamics of Rotation: An Elementary Introduction to Rigid Dynamics
Many students of Physics or Engineering, who from want either of mathematical aptitude, or of sufficient training in the methods of analytical solid geometry, are unable to follow the works of mathematical writers on Rigid Dynamics, must have felt disappointed, after master ing so much of the Dynamics of a Particle as is given in the excellent and widely-used text-books of Loney, or Garnett, or Lock, to find that they have been obliged, after all, to stop short of the point at which their know ledge could be of appreciable practical use to them, and that the explanation of any of the phenomena exhibited by rotating or oscillating rigid bodies, so interesting and obviously important, was still beyond their reach.
The aim of this little book is to help such students to make the most of what they have already learnt, and to carry their instruction to the point of practical utility.

Dynamics of Rotation: An Elementary Introduction to Rigid Dynamics
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the dynamics of rotation, a branch of physics that delves into the motion of rigid bodies around a fixed axis. The author aims to make this complex subject accessible to students of physics and engineering who may lack extensive mathematical training. Drawing upon simple experiments, the author presents a clear and intuitive approach to understanding concepts like torque, rotational inertia, and angular momentum. Instead of relying solely on mathematical derivations, the book encourages readers to grasp these concepts through direct observation and practical applications, offering a refreshing perspective on the subject. Through numerous examples and exercises, the author guides readers through the principles of rotational motion, revealing the intricate relationships between forces, masses, and accelerations within spinning systems. The book's emphasis on experiential learning and practical understanding makes it an invaluable resource for anyone seeking a clear and engaging introduction to the fascinating world of rotating bodies. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781331942870_0
