TY - BOOK AU - Irodov, I E TI - Fundamental Laws of Mechanics SN - 5030002294 U1 - 531 PY - 0000///Not Available CY - New Delhi PB - ADELINE KW - Mechanical N1 - The objective of the book is to draw the readers' attention to the basic laws of mechanics, that is, to the laws of motion and to the laws of conservation of energy, momentum and angular momentum, as well as to show how these laws are to be applied in solving various specific problems. The book consists of two parts: Classical Mechanics and Relativistic Mechanics. In the first part the laws of mechanics are treated in the Newtonian approximation, i.e., when motion velocities are much less than the velocity of light, while in the second part of the book velocities comparable to that of light are considered; Contents: Part 1 Classical Mechanics Chapter 1 Essentials of Kinematics Chapter 2 The Basic Equation of Dynamics Chapter 3 Energy Conservation Law Chapter 4 The Law of Conservation of Momentum Chapter 5 The Law of Conservation of Angular Momentum Part Two 2 Relativistic Mechanics Chapter 6 Kinematics in Special Theory of Relativity Chapter 7 Relativistic Dynamics Appendices Index ER -
