Welcome to Classical Physics
The course is roughly divided into three parts:
- Lagrangian and Hamiltonian Formalism of Classical Mechanics
- Elements of classical statistical mechanics
- Elements of special relativity
This is to provide a background to other courses in the physics minor stream,
namely quantum mechanics for engineers and two electives. Although, taken by itself it
ought to be fun too.
A pdf file ph350.pdf with slightly more details of the course contents and the
texts and references.
The classroom is HSB 210. The slot is G as in Grrrr…
This means we meet on Wednesdays at 3:00 PM, Thursdays at 11:00 AM and Fridays at 10:00 AM.
Disclaimer: This page is an experiment, so I am not sure how the final product will be!
