82. Classical Mechanics And Special Relativity Einstein claims that something is missing in classical mechanics and his own special relativity. They postulate a privileged frame, ie, the inertial frame. http://www.bun.kyoto-u.ac.jp/~suchii/Einstein/noprivilege.html

Einstein Seminar What's Wrong with Classical Mechanics and Special Relativity? Section Twenty-One Einstein claims that something is missing in classical mechanics and his own special relativity. They postulate a privileged frame, i.e., the inertial frame. But if it is privileged, there must be some real difference between other frames and itself; otherwise, there should be no privileged frame. Since Einstein can find no real basis for the privilege of the inertial frame, he regards these theories as unsatisfactory. And, he thinks that physics with the general principle of relativity can satisfy this requirement. Notice that Einstein's argument is remiscent of Leibniz's principle of sufficient reason: if two things are really different, there must be a sufficient reason for that (see Leibniz-Clarke Corr.

83. Classical Mechanics Space and Time in classical mechanics. Section Three How should we make sense of the notions of space and time in classical mechanics? http://www.bun.kyoto-u.ac.jp/~suchii/Einstein/class.mech.html

Einstein Seminar Space and Time in Classical Mechanics Section Three Einstein briefly touches on the problem of space and time in classical mechanics. How should we make sense of the notions of space and time in classical mechanics? Here, Einstein clearly has the notions of "absolute space" and of "absolute time" in his mind. ... we entirely shun the vague word "space", of which we must honestly acknowledge, we cannot form the slightest conception, and we replace it by "motion relative to a practically rigid body of reference." ... With the aid of this example it is clearly seen that there is no such thing as an independently existing trajectory ..., but only a trajectory relative to a particular body of reference. These data must be supplemented by such a definition of time that, in virtue of this definition, these time-values can be regarded essentially as magnitudes ... capable of observation . (pp. 10-11) Einstein's argument may look quite attractive. But the matter is not as simple as this. Is the similar argument applicable to

Although it is possible to register for only one of two courses, it is advisable to join both courses. Credits: 6 credit points Instructor: Dr. Henk Broer, University of Groningen E-mail: broer@iwinet.rug.nl Description: We study subjects from classical mechanics, like oscillations, the Kepler problem, the motions of a rigid body, etc. from a mathematical viewpoint. De corresponding equations of motion, which are ordinary differential equations, are studied both from the variational (Euler-Lagrange) as from the Hamilton-Jacobi formalism. The corresponding theory has many applications in classical mechanics, in semi-classical quantum mechanics, in control theory and in many parts of physics, e.g., in optics. In fact, the theory provides a background mathematical language for all modern mathematical physics. This language is quite geometrical and involves the use of manifolds, (co-) tangent bundles, etc. We discuss the theorem of Emmy Noether regarding the connection between symmetries and conservation laws. In the Hamiltonian approach we also meet differential forms (like integral invariants). As an application a theorem of Liouville is treated, concerning the canonical measure in phase space, which is invariant under time-evolution.

Classical Mechanics John Baez Spring 2005 Here are a some course notes and homework problems for a mathematics graduate course on classical mechanics. I've taught this course twice recently. The first time I focused on the Hamiltonian approach. This Spring I'm doing the Lagrangian approach, and Derek Wise is taking notes: Week 1 (Mar. 28, 30, Apr. 1) - The Lagrangian approach to classical mechanics: deriving F = ma from the requirement that the particle's path be a critical point of the action. The prehistory of the Lagrangian approach: D'Alembert's "principle of least energy" in statics, Fermat's "principle of least time" in optics, and how D'Alembert generalized his principle from statics to dynamics using the concept of "inertia force". Week 2 (Apr. 4, 6, 8) - Deriving the Euler-Lagrange equations for a particle on an arbitrary manifold. Generalized momentum and force. Noether's theorem on conserved quantities coming from symmetries. Examples of conserved quantities: energy, momentum and angular momentum. Week 3 (Apr. 11, 13, 15) - Example problems: 1) The Atwood machine. 2) A frictionless mass on a table attached to a string threaded through a hole in the table, with a mass hanging on the string. 3) A special-relativistic free particle: two Lagrangians, one with reparametrization invariance as a gauge symmetry. 4) A special-relativistic charged particle in an electromagnetic field.

Next: Statistical Mechanics - Calculating Up: Previous: Classical and Quantum Mechanics - in a Nutshell Classical Mechanics Building on the work of Galileo and others, Newton unveiled his laws of motion in 1686. According to Newton: I . A body remains at rest or in uniform motion (constant velocity - both speed and direction) unless acted on by a net external force. II . In response to a net external force, , a body of mass m accelerates with acceleration III . If body i pushes on body j with a force , then body j pushes on body i with a force For energy-conserving forces, the net force on particle i is the negative gradient (slope in three dimensions) of the potential energy with respect to particle i 's position: , where represents the potential energy of the system as a function of the positions of all N particles, . In three dimensions, is the vector of length 3 specifying the position of the atom, and is the vector of length specifying all coordinates. In the context of simulation, the forces are calculated for energy minimizations and molecular dynamics simulations but are not needed in Monte Carlo simulations.

Half of the subject deals with the powerful and elegant Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formulations of classical mechanics. As well as supplying new tools for problems in classical mechanics, these approaches also lead to deeper insights into the relationship between classical and quantum mechanics. Lagrangian dynamics is a valuable precursor to honours-level studies in theoretical physics. The other half of the subject deals with the further development of quantum mechanics, especially in relation to three-dimensional problems and the structure of matter. Students completing this subject will be able to: explain the basic principles of the Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formulations of classical mechanics as well as the present-day microscopic picture of matter in terms of its basic constituents, ranging from atoms, molecules and solids to atomic nuclei and their constituent particles; apply Lagrangian and Hamiltonian techniques to the solution of some key problems in classical physics; and

93. New Foundations For Classical Mechanics It contains extensive applications to classical mechanics in a textbook format suitable for courses at an intermediate level. The text is supported by more http://modelingnts.la.asu.edu/html/NFCM.html

New Foundations for Classical Mechanics David Hestenes (second edition, 1999). [To order this book from Kluwer see New Foundations for Classical Mechanics, 2nd Ed] This book provides an introduction to geometric algebra as a unified language for physics and mathematics. It contains extensive applications to classical mechanics in a textbook format suitable for courses at an intermediate level. The text is supported by more than 200 diagrams to help develop geometrical and physical intuition. Besides covering the standard material for a course on the mechanics of particles and rigid bodies, the book introduces new, coordinate-free methods for rotational dynamics and orbital mechanics , developing these subjects to a level well beyond that of other textbooks. These methods have been widely applied in recent years to biomechanics and robotics, to computer vision and geometric design, to orbital mechanics in governmental and industrial space programs, as well as to other branches of physics. The book applies them to the major perturbations in the solar system, including the planetary perturbations of Mercury's perihelion. Geometric algebra integrates conventional vector algebra (along with its established notations) into a system with all the advantages of quaternions and spinors. Thus, it increases the power of the mathematical language of classical mechanics while bringing it closer to the language of quantum mechanics. This book systematically develops purely mathematical applications of geometric algebra useful in physics, including extensive applications to linear algebra and transformation groups. It contains sufficient material for a course on mathematical topics alone.

98. General Term: Classical Mechanics General Term classical mechanics. classical mechanics. A branch of physics that deals with the effects of energy and forces on the motion of physical http://www.meta-library.net/physgloss/classmech-body.html

Classical Mechanics A branch of physics that deals with the effects of energy and forces on the motion of physical objects, based on the work of Isaac Newton and on three-dimensional Euclidean geometry, also called Newtonian mechanics Newton deterministic equations of motion. This means that the future is, in principle, entirely predictable as long as we know all the forces acting on a system and if we obtain an exact knowledge of its initial conditions. This view, rooted in classical physics, was carried over and applied to all macroscopic systems in nature, including those described by thermodynamics, geology, meteorology, evolutionary biology , and even those now studied using chaos theory . Chance events occur in all these fields, but the notion of chance here is purely epistemic genetic mutation expressed in a phenotype and the adaptivity of that phenotype to a changing environment. In either case, even when statistical methods are used, they are used for practical purposes and do not indicate ontological atomism , completed the case for the mechanistic world view by the nineteenth century.

The Scientific Revolution and Classical Mechanics Timeline Following the Copernican revolution, it was apparent that scientifc theories could not be accepted without rigorous testing. Communication among scientists increased and spurred more discoveries. Galileo Galilei is considered by many to be the father of modern physics because of his willingness to replace old assumptions in favor of new scientifically deduced theories. He is famous for his celestial theories, and his works on mechanics paved the way for Newton. Tycho Brahe and Johannes Kepler . Brahe's accurate celestial data allow Kepler to develop his theory of elliptical planetary motion and provide evidence for the Copernican system. In addition, Kepler writes a qualitative description of gravitation. Sir Isaac Newton develops the laws of mechanics (now called classical mechanics) which explains object motion in a mathematical fashion. Thomas Young develops the wave theory of light and describes light interference. Michael Faraday creates the electric motor, and develops an understanding of electromagnetic induction, which provides evidence that electricity and magnetism are related. In addition, he discovers electrolysis and describes the conservation of energy law.
