Course Outcomes:

At the end of the course, the student will be able to:

  • Apply  fundamental  concepts  of  kinematics  and  kinetics  of  rigid bodies  to  the  analysis  of simple,  practical  problems (L3).

  • Apply basic knowledge of  maths  and physics  to  solve real-world  problems (L3).

  • Understand  basic kinematics  concepts  – displacement,  velocity  and acceleration  (and their angular counterparts) (L2).

  • Understand  and  be  able  to  apply  Newton’s  laws  of  motion (L2, L3).
