Free ebookClassical Mechanics for Absolute Beginners: Motion, Forces, and Energy

Course Description

Classical Mechanics for Absolute Beginners Motion, Forces, and Energy is a practical introduction to physics within basic studies, designed to help you understand how everyday motion can be predicted, explained, and calculated. If you have ever wondered why objects speed up, slow down, fall, slide, or turn in circles, this ebook course builds the classical mechanics foundations you need with clear explanations and guided practice.

You will start by learning how physical quantities and units make motion a useful model, then progress through kinematics in one dimension and two dimensions using position, velocity, acceleration, vectors, projectiles, and relative motion. As you build confidence, you will connect these ideas to Newtons laws of motion, turning interactions into equations that describe real situations. You will also learn how to create free body diagrams so you can translate a messy scene into a solvable physics model.

The course keeps its focus on real world applications, including friction and drag when surfaces resist motion and air slows moving objects, as well as uniform circular motion and centripetal acceleration to understand curves, turns, and rotating systems. You will practice solving problems using both force based and energy based methods, learning how work and energy provide a second powerful way to analyze motion. Momentum and impulse are introduced to explain collisions and explosions in one dimension and in two dimensions, including vector conservation and glancing impacts.

To complete your toolkit, you will explore rotational motion essentials such as torque, angular quantities, and energy in rotation, then learn how to combine multiple concepts while avoiding common pitfalls with units and sign conventions. By the end, you will be prepared to approach introductory physics problems with structure, clarity, and confidence.

Start the course today and build a strong, beginner friendly foundation in classical mechanics you can use in study, exams, and everyday reasoning about motion.
