Sommario/riassunto |
|
This book provides an innovative and mathematically sound treatment of the foundations of analytical mechanics and the relation of classical mechanics to relativity and quantum theory. It treats time as a transformable coordinate, and so moves the teaching of classical mechanics out of the ninteenth century and into the modern relativistic era. It also presents of classical mechanics in a way designed to assist the student's transition to quantum theory. - ;This book provides an innovative and mathematically sound treatment of the foundations of analytical mechanics and the relation of classic |
