Problems and Solutions in Rotational Mechanics (eBook)

This series of books provides a selection of systematically arranged problems across the breadth of a typical course in physics. Hints and solutions are provided to guide students through each topic. Every book of this series has different types of problems which gradually increase in difficulty, making these an ideal resource for an aspiring students looking to master the concepts of physics, as well as lecturers looking to extend their class content. They will be equally useful for students undertaking entrance and GRE examinations at leading universities and those preparing for national and international Physics Olympiads. They will also be invaluable to students in allied subjects, such as engineering, wanting to master the underlying physical concepts of their field. Each introduced concept is followed by a series of worked examples and problems. Each will contain between 500 and 600 problems in examples and exercises.

Rotational mechanics is the most challenging area in mechanics because it needs many concepts to solve a single problem. rotational motion is also extremely important in mechanical devices. In every case, the rotation of an extended, rigid body can be mathematically described as a collection of circular motions by the particles making up the body. Two very important quantities for dealing with such collections of particles in rotation are the rotational kinetic energy, and the angular momentum.
