Lecture

Mechanics: System of Point Masses

Description

This lecture covers the fundamental concepts of mechanics related to systems of point masses, including definitions, moment of forces, kinetic energy, and conservation laws. It also explores the center of mass, moment of inertia, and theorems related to kinetic energy transfer and conservation. The instructor illustrates these concepts with examples such as the Foucault pendulum and the motion of the center of mass in different scenarios.
