Earth Dynamics and Foucault Pendulum

This lecture covers the dynamics of the Earth, the Foucault pendulum, and material point systems. Topics include the Foucault pendulum, absolute and relative reference frames, forces like weight and tension, and the Coriolis force. The lecture also delves into the concept of the center of mass, kinematics, and dynamics of material point systems. The instructor, Dr. Sylvain Bréchet, explains the laws of relative motion, equations of motion, and principles of conservation. The lecture concludes with discussions on the conservation of momentum, angular momentum, and energy in material point systems.
