Aims

To build upon the basics of Applied Mathematics introduced in a first semester module and to give students the grounding necessary to an Engineering degree programme.

Learning Outcomes

1.
Identify and combine appropriate equations in order to calculate the displacement, time, velocity or acceleration in problems of linear, projectile or circular motion.
2.
Formulate expressions of conservation of energy in problems involving transfer of energy between two objects or conversion of energy from one type to another.
3.
Formulate expressions of the conservation of linear momentum in two-body problems and use them in order to predict the outcome of impacts and collisions.
