Physics news on Phys.org
A Google search for "MIT classical mechanics" will give you several sets of lectures from MIT at various levels.
 
While i don't think you are in a need of them now but i will write it for the people who come on this thread for the same question.
Just search Youtube Lectures by Walter lewin.
As you might know Walter lewin was a prof. at MIT and is a renowned physicist and widely regarded as the most amazing lecturer of this time. Due to some problems his lecture videos were taken off from MIT OCW and youtube but he uploaded them in his own channel by the name of "Lectures by walter lewin. They will make you *heart emoji* physics".
So check out that channel along with the playlist he created for different courses.
 

Thread 'Derivation of Hamilton's Principle: Questions'

I have recently been really interested in the derivation of Hamiltons Principle. On my research I found that with the term ##m \cdot \frac{d}{dt} (\frac{dr}{dt} \cdot \delta r) = 0## (1) one may derivate ##\delta \int (T - V) dt = 0## (2). The derivation itself I understood quiet good, but what I don't understand is where the equation (1) came from, because in my research it was just given and not derived from anywhere. Does anybody know where (1) comes from or why from it the...
