COURSE DESCRIPTION Presents approach to kinematics of particles in linear and curvilinear motion. Includes kinematics of rigid bodies in plane motion. Teaches Newton's second law, work-energy and power, impulse and momentum, and problem solving. Lecture 3 hours per week. COURSE OBJECTIVES This course will give students the skills to analyze particles of mass and rigid bodies moving in linear and curved paths under the influence of various forces and undergoing different types of acceleration. This is the second and last course offered in classical (Newtonian) mechanics, following EGR 240: Statics. It forms the foundation for later studies in fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, antenna design, vibration analysis, electro-acoustics, and other engineering fields. ENTRY LEVEL COMPETENCIES Vector algebra and statics. Prerequisites: MTH 277 and EGR 240. TEXTBOOK Vector Mechanics for Engineers: Dynamics by Beer, Johnston, and Cornwell, Ninth Edition, ISBN-13: 978-0-07-724916-8. Note: Eighth Edition can also be used. MAJOR TOPICS 1. Kinematics of particles of mass in three dimensions (Ch. 11) 2. Kinetics of particles (Ch. 12-13) 3. Space mechanics (planar motion of particles of mass) (Ch. 14) 4. Kinematics of rigid bodies (planar motion) (Ch. 15) 5. Kinetics of rigid bodies (Ch. 16) 6. Conservation of energy (conservative force systems) (Ch. 17) 7.

POLICIES AND MISCELLANEOUS NOTES 1. Review problems are worked out at the beginning of class. Students are strongly encouraged to attempt the problems on their own before class. 2. There will be five quizzes. The lowest quiz score is dropped. 3. There will neither be a curve nor extra credit. 4. Requests to make-up missed exams must be accompanied by proof (e.g., doctors note) of mitigating circumstances. 5. It is the students responsibility to drop or withdraw from a course on his or her own in accordance with the requirements of NOVA. 6. February 1 is the last day to withdraw with a tuition refund or change to audit. 7. March 25 is the last day for students to withdraw and receive a W grade. 8. Students should check Blackboard regularly for announcements and other course-related postings (e.g., assignments, notes, supplemental information). In the event of an emergency cancellation of class, please check Blackboard for further instructions. See http://tac.nvcc.edu/blackboard/student/ for more information on how to use Blackboard. 9. Any student who thinks that he/she may need an accommodation based on a disability should make an appointment to see a Counselor for Disability Services. 10. NOVA is a place for learning and growing. You should feel safe and comfortable anywhere on this campus. In order to meet this objective, you should: a) let your instructor, his/her supervisor, the Dean of Students, or Provost know if any unsafe, unwelcome, or uncomfortable situation arises that interferes with the learning process; b) inform the instructor within the first two weeks of classes if you have received a special needs or a disability accommodation that may affect your performance in this course. 11. The College does not tolerate academic dishonesty. Students found to be guilty of academic dishonesty will be given a grade penalty in the course and will be subject to disciplinary action. In extreme cases, dismissal from the College may result. All students are expected to be familiar with their rights and responsibilities as outlined in the Student Handbook. 12. Please be courteous to the instructor and fellow students by refraining from conducting cell phone calls in the classroom. 13. In case of emergency, please follow the emergency procedure as discussed on the first day of class and as posted in the classroom.
