ENGR 275 Dynamics
Topic: Work Energy
Dynamics is a sophomore level class in engineering where we study the kinematics and kinetics of particles and rigid bodies. This class is usually organized to provide: 1) a brief section of theory, 2) time to work an example problem where theory is applied, and 3) some active learning where students apply their knowledge to additional example problems. Color coding of equations and diagrams usually assists in student learning. The class is usually very active with the professor asking for students for input in setting up problems. Come along for the ride!
