This web site will become fuller as the course proceeds. In the mean time, you might want to check out [[http://griffin.ucsc.edu/teaching/10Q4-105.html|the last year's course web site]]. Here is the syllabus for this year. It will get updated soon with office hours. |

What is this course about?
Classical mechanics is a beautifully ripe subject, albeit with hidden surprises. In this course, we will get a complete overview of classical mechanics. We will learn Newtonian and Lagrangian views of classical mechanics. We will cover some basic topics such as linear systems and the central force problem, and also not so basic topics such as non-linear dynamics (chaos), and many particle systems (field theory). If time allows (very unlikely), we may cover the special theory of relativity as well.
Checking out last year’s course web site might be of some use. Last but not the least, remember that you are the one!
