Description

Problem solving in physics is not simply a
test of understanding, but an integral part of
learning. This book contains complete stepby-
step solutions for all exercise problems in
Essential Classical Mechanics, with succinct
chapter-by-chapter summaries of key concepts
and formulas. The degree of difficulty with
problems varies from quite simple to very
challenging: but none too easy, as all problems
in physics demand some subtlety of intuition.
The emphasis of the book is not so much in
acquainting students with various problemsolving
techniques as in suggesting ways of
thinking. For undergraduate and graduate
students, as well as those involved in teaching
classical mechanics, this book can be used as a
supplementary text or as an independent study
aid.
