Thanks for your help.BvU said:You make it hard to help if you don't mention a level. Introductory, undergrad, worse ?
I had
R. J. Stephenson: Mechanics and properties of matter Ch 6 (about 80 pages) and
L. E. Goodman: Dynamics, Ch 6 and 7 and appendix II (a lot more)
I was hoping for a book dedicated to understanding rotational mechanics for undergraduate level.BvU said:I suppose you already googled things like this ? E-mail the author !
So there is a syllabus and a whole cottage industry -- use them !
understand the concepts from "HCV"(concepts of physics by HC Verma) and NCERT for JEE type questions do either mechanics 2 by DC Pandey or BM Sharma and then finally to gain absolute mastery go to books like "problems in general physics" by IE Irodov or "500 selected problems in physics for JEE mains and advance" by DC pandey and obviously questions from past papers are a must. as stated by @BvU there are plenty of sources to learn rotational mechanics mostly there are few books dedicated only on the topic but I think there is one by S.L Loney.NTesla said:Thanks for your help.
You are right. I should have mentioned it. I was asking for the best book for understanding rotational mechanics for undergraduate entrance exams like IITJEE in India.
Might be a little hard with Covid and all.BvU said:go to a university library and find a mechanics textbook (with lots of exercises ) to your liking
Allen's(or almost any coaching for that matter) material is good in the sense they usually take theory/questions, from various relevant books so as to save you some time and money. But personally, I feel studying from a proper book is always better.sahilmm15 said:How is this https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1FouWRaa5Z-EcYutVuaEwb7z-psq0Gtav ?? Open it and go to the section of Rotational Motion.
Rotational mechanics is a branch of physics that deals with the motion and forces of objects that are rotating or moving in a circular path.
Studying rotational mechanics helps us understand the behavior and movement of objects in our everyday lives, such as wheels, gears, and planets. It also has practical applications in engineering and technology.
When choosing a book for studying rotational mechanics, it's important to consider the author's credentials, the level of detail and examples provided, and if it aligns with your learning style and goals. It's also helpful to read reviews and ask for recommendations from experts in the field.
Yes, there are many online resources available for learning rotational mechanics, such as video lectures, interactive simulations, and practice problems. However, a comprehensive textbook can provide a more structured and thorough understanding of the subject.
Some popular books for studying rotational mechanics include "Introduction to Classical Mechanics" by David Morin, "Classical Mechanics" by John R. Taylor, and "Mechanics" by Keith R. Symon. It's also helpful to consult with your instructor or peers for their recommendations.
