On The Motion Of Points Constrained And Resisted, And On The Motion Of A Rigid Body

Focusing on the principles of dynamics and mechanics, this work examines the motion of constrained and resisted points, as well as rigid bodies. It covers the laws of motion, forces, and energy, complemented by detailed mathematical equations for calculating these concepts. Aimed at students and professionals in physics, engineering, and mathematics, this comprehensive resource serves as a valuable reference. As a facsimile reprint of the original 1834 edition, it preserves the cultural significance of Whewell's contributions to the field.
