Mechanics

Introduction

• Dimensional Analysis
• Solutions to Quiz on Chapter 2 (Drozdoff’s class)
• Solutions to Quiz on Chapter 3 (Drozdoff’s class)

Newton’s Laws of Motion

• Quiz on Chapter 5 (Drozdoff’s class)
• Solutions to Quiz on Chapter 5 (Drozdoff’s class)
• Solution of the Resistive Force Equation
  You will not, for now, be expected to be able to solve the equation, but you should fully understand—at a minimum—the first paragraph and be able to reproduce it.
