Mechanics

Preface

This text covers the Classical Mechanics content of the first year core physics unit at the University of Bristol. It is divided into three parts, the Course notes, Problem sheets, and Workshops.

I would like to thank Dr Simon Hanna who taught this course previously, and the course textbooks, on which this course is based.

There are certainly errors in the text that are mine. Please email Andy.Young@bristol.ac.uk with any corrections.

This documents was written using Quarto. The notes are available in HTML5 (the colour scheme and text size can be changed, and is good for screen readers), PDF, and Word format. This improves accessibility somewhat, but I am happy to receive feedback where you have run into problems (e.g., with equations). To learn more about Quarto books visit https://quarto.org/docs/books.
