Excerpt from Text-Book of Mechanics, Vol. 2
This, the second volume of the Text-book of Mechanics, completes an elementary course in Mechanics which, it is hoped, will prepare the student for courses in Applied Mechanics and lay a solid foundation for his future study of more difficult works on Mechanics.
This volume is intended for students possessing a knowledge of the methods of Plane Analytic Geometry and Calculus. It is arranged so that students having a knowledge of the Differential Calculus may undertake its study provided they are pursuing a course in the Integral Calculus.
Besides illustrating the principles of Kinematics and Kinetics the object has been to explain the application of pure mathematics as taught in our schools and thus give the student confidence in its use.
To obtain the best results the student should solve practically all of the many exercises as they occur in the text.
My thanks are again due my wife, Alwynne B. Martin, for many valuable suggestions and aid in reading the proof.
