Dynamics Of Rotation: An Elementary Introduction To Rigid Dynamics (1902) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781436827065)

""Dynamics of Rotation: An Elementary Introduction to Rigid Dynamics"" is a book written by Arthur Mason Worthington and first published in 1902. The book provides an in-depth introduction to the principles of rigid dynamics, which is the study of the motion of objects that maintain their shape and size under the influence of external forces. The book covers a range of topics related to rigid dynamics, including the dynamics of rotating bodies, the laws of motion, the principle of virtual work, and the motion of a rigid body about a fixed point. It also explores the dynamics of gyroscopes, which are devices that use the principles of rigid dynamics to maintain their orientation in space.Worthington's writing style is clear and accessible, making the book suitable for both students and professionals in the field of physics. The book is also illustrated with numerous diagrams and examples to help readers understand the concepts presented.Overall, ""Dynamics of Rotation: An Elementary Introduction to Rigid Dynamics"" is a valuable resource for anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of the principles of rigid dynamics and their applications in physics and engineering.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
