Lecture Details :
Professor Shankar introduces the course and answers student questions about the material and the requirements. He gives an overview of Newtonian mechanics and explains its two components: kinematics and dynamics. He then reviews basic concepts in calculus through two key equations: x(t) = x0 + v0t + _ at2 and v2 = v02 + 2 a (x-x0), tracing the fate of a particle in one dimension along the x-axis.
Course Description :
Course Introduction and Newtonian Mechanics, Vectors in Multiple Dimensions, Newton's Laws of Motion, Work-Energy Theorem and Law of Conservation of Energy, Kepler's Laws, Law of Conservation of Momentum, Rotations, Torque, Introduction to Relativity, Lorentz Transformation, Four-Vector in Relativity, Simple Harmonic Motion, First, Second Law of Thermodynamics and Carnot's Engine, The Boltzmann Constant, entropy etc...

i was so excited and completely satisfied with Sir,Ramamurti shankar's teaching. wow, my thirst of physics was fulfilled by him....Wonderfull im just a guy from a poor village in India,but this free video course made me more encouraged to do my higher studies in physics,,........thanking you ...
@sv Sanjay
That is a great experience. We have plenty of other video lectures by top professors.
