Synopsis of Course Contents The course begins with kinematics of particles using different coordinate
systems such as rectilinear motion, curvilinear motion, rectangular motion
and circular motion. This is followed by the kinetic relations of a particle and
system of particles using different coordinate systems such as rectangular,
normal and tangential. Subsequently, the kinematic relations of rigid bodies
using different coordinate systems such as rotating and translating
coordinates will be explored. Finally, the kinetic relations of rigid bodies
using different coordinate systems will be introduced.
