S. L. Loney, famously known for his numerous books on Mathematics, presents an exhaustive book on the subject of statics and dynamics. Students preparing for entrance examinations such as the JEE can benefit from this reference manual. It provides a perfect combination of theory and practical knowledge to help students prepare well for the exam.
The Elements Of Statics And Dynamics (Part- 2) is broadly divided into thirteen sections that are further organized into chapters. The first section is about Velocity and explains Parallelogram of Velocities, Angular Velocity and Relative Velocity. The second section elucidates Acceleration, and covers topics like Parallelogram of Accelerations, Relations between u, f, v, s, and t, and Graphic Methods. The third section provides in-depth knowledge about Motion Under Gravity. The fourth section of the book explores The Laws of Motion. Here, students get to know about the, Parallelogram of Forces and Physical Independence of Forces. The fifth section teaches how the Laws of Motion can be applied to solve simple problems.
The other topics incorporated in The Elements Of Statics And Dynamics (Part- 2) are Projectiles, Collision of Elastic Bodies, and Simple Harmonic Motion. In these sections, the author wraps up numerous relevant topics such as Range on an Inclined Plane, Loss of Kinetic Energy by Impact, Galileo`s Experiment, Determination of `g` by Means of a Simple Pendulum, Motion on the Outside of a Vertical Circle, and others.
The author ensures to highlight the fundamental concepts of the topics by providing a list of points in between each chapter. The book consists of numerous examples that are easy to understand. Some of the examples are intentionally placed after each topic so that students can comprehend the topic better. Also, exercises are included at the end of each chapter that comprise both objective as well as subjective questions. Miscellaneous examples are provided with their answers to further help the students. The Elements Of Statics And Dynamics (Part- 2) is considered the best reference textbook on this subject and it is used at different universities in South India. ISBN-9789380068534
