This is the website for Classical Mechanics, Physics 507.
About the text:
The main text is my textbook, Classical Mechanics,
which you can print from the web. See
Getting the text.
Not everyone likes my book, and you can find the same material
in many published textbooks. The most standard, but rather old,
is Goldstein, the latest version of which is
Goldstein, Poole and Safko, Classical Mechanics, third edition.
I will try to point you to the relevant sections in both books as
we proceed.
More generally, all course information is
available on these web pages, accessible by the links on the right.
You should begin by reading the "General Course Information".
Students are responsible for knowing whatever is posted on these pages.
To help you be aware of any changes, an updated
icon will blink at you to show pages which have recently been changed,
and recent announcements will be posted here. Links which are not ready
will be shown in orange.
