Lecture notes

  • Lecture 5, Oct. 6: Conservation principles and 1D motions.

  • Lecture 4, Oct. 4: Lorentz force (Qs)

    • Read footnote 3, to clear up the confusion for the number of integration constants.
    • When we consider the time-reversal symmetry of this problem, we do not reverse the direction of $\vec{B}$, taking it as given. If we can reverse the direction of $\vec{B}$ as well as the direction of the particle's motion, then the time reversal symmetry would be valid. Read end of page 4, to see why sometimes $\vec{B}$ is not reversible.

  • Lecture 3, Sep. 29: Perturbation. Air resistance. (Qs)

    • Page 8, a new box on perturbation expansion. 2/3 → 1/3 in 3 lines above the box. — Sam, 1:04PM, Oct 04, 2011

  • Lecture 2, Sep. 27: Newton's laws. Air resistance. (Qs)

  • Lecture 1, Sep. 22: What to learn? Particles, dimensions. Vectors and (orthogonal) matrices.
