This collection has the purpose of producing less expensive textbooks that support the teaching and learning process. This book begins after the basic concepts of classical mechanics have been already introduced in a course and from that point, it explains the quantitative expression of the second law of Newton and its application, as well as the composition of the forces, projectile motion, motion and the equilibrium of a material particle that is not free, the pendulum, work, the principle of live forces (energy), the general theory of machines, collisions, general equations of equilibrium deduced from the principle of virtual work, the principle of D’Alembert, and mechanical units (definition and division of mechanics, importance of this science and its methods).
Featuring reviews of 100s of Spanish Language books, magazines and articles and multimedia!
