Course Learning Outcomes By the end of this course, students are able to:
1. Comprehend the concepts of kinematics and kinetics, and dynamics of
particles and rigid bodies
2. Apply Newton, energy, momentum, and impulse methods in solving
motions and dynamic problems.
3. Analyze the motion of the particles and rigid bodies by considering the
mass and external force acting on it.
4. Correlate the dynamics of the particles to solve for the design of two-
and three-dimensional problems.

Transferable Skills Critical thinking and problem solving skills
Communication skills

Synopsis of Course Contents This course exposing the student to applied mechanics by using vector
analysis approach which is introduced early lecture and used throughout
the presentation of statics and dynamics. This approach leads to more con-
cise derivations of the fundamental principles of mechanics. It also results
in simpler solutions of three-dimensional problems in statics, and makes it
possible to analyze many advanced problem in kinematics and kinetics,
which could not be solved by scalar methods. The emphasis in this sylla-
bus, however, remains on the correct deriving and applying of the principles
of mechanics and on their application to the solution of engineering prob-
lems, and vector analysis is presented chiefly as a convenient tool.
