The aim of the course is to introduce the students to the basic principles of dynamics, so that they will be able to analyze the two-dimensional motion of particles and rigid bodies. The topics that will be examined include kinematics of particles in fixed and moving reference frames, simple relative motion, second law application in rectilinear translation, projectile motion, energy and momentum principles for particles and for rigid bodies in plane motion, Euler's equations, moment of inertia properties, the simple oscillator and its applications, etc.
