| Review the treatment of forces including representing a force as a 3-D vector with |
| rectanuglar components, representation of a force using direction cosines, representation |
of a force using slopes, representation of a force along a line from a point  to point  , |
| and representation of a force using azimuth and elevation angles. This discussion is to be based |
| on information presented in R/S Chapter 2 (pp. 33-77). |
| |
| Work a few examples of the resolution of a force into its components from R/S Chapter 2. |
| |
| Introduce the conservation of linear momentum based on information presented in |
| Reference #4 and Glover Chapter 5 (pp. 105-124). The sign conventions to be used are |
| described in Reference #4. Standard formats for COLM Finite Time and COLM Rate |
| tables are introduced in Reference #4. |
| Skills/Objectives: |
| |
| Manipulation of forces. |
| Assessment: |
| |
| Homework Set #4: Work problems 2-58, 59, 78, 80, 83 and 85 (due on Day 5). |
| Resources: |
| |
| R/S Chapter 2 (pp. 33-77), Reference #4, Glover Chapter 5 (pp. 105-124). |
| Notes: |
| |
| The solution to each problem from this point on in this class MUST include a units table, |
| all necessary system diagrams, all necessary conservation tables, and then the solution. |
| |
| It should also be noted that Glover Chapter 5 does not employ consistent units for |
| problems presented in US units. |
| Advanced Organizers: |
| |
| Read Reference #4 and Glover Chapter 5 (pp. 105-124). |
