MAT272 |
| Course Description |
This course is an introductory course for students majoring in mathematical sciences at diploma level. Along with other courses in mathematics taken at diploma level, this course serves as giving a complete exposure of mathematics, theoretically as well as applied. It introduces the basic concepts and applications in mechanics such
as force, resolution, and decomposition of forces, equilibrium of a system of forces, moment, motion, velocity, and acceleration in a straight line, projectile and Newton’s law of motion. This course gives early exposure to application of mathematics and would be helpful to prepare students for further studies after diploma. |
