On The Motion Of Points Constrained And Resisted, And On The Motion Of A Rigid Body: The Second Part Of A New Edition Of A Treatise On Dynamics (1834)

""On The Motion Of Points Constrained And Resisted, And On The Motion Of A Rigid Body"" is the second part of a new edition of ""A Treatise On Dynamics"" written by William Whewell in 1834. This book focuses on the study of motion of points that are constrained and resisted, as well as the motion of rigid bodies. It explores the principles of dynamics and mechanics, including the laws of motion, forces, and energy. The book also delves into the mathematical aspects of these principles, providing detailed equations and formulas for calculating motion and forces. With its comprehensive coverage of the topic, this book is a valuable resource for students and professionals in the fields of physics, engineering, and mathematics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
