This learning track covers a comprehensive understanding of fundamental principles of physics and their applications in engineering. It starts with the exploration of Newton's laws of motion and the concept of equilibrium, using real-world examples like the force exerted by a wall or the force required to hold a block on an inclined plane. The track then delves into the study of structural systems, focusing on rigid bodies, their classifications, and the forces acting within them. It further explores the concept of frictional force and its real-world applications, using examples like belt drives and block systems. The track also covers the fundamentals of kinematics and motion analysis, explaining concepts like instantaneous velocity and acceleration. It concludes with an in-depth study of kinetics of rigid bodies, impulse momentum, and work energy methodologies, using practical examples like a block subjected to various forces, a bat hitting a ball, and a block falling in a gravitational field.
