Very difficult for material I studied 50 years ago and haven’t used since, but very good & challenging.

I enjoyed the course though It would be a semester course in college i.e. quite long, lots of work
Well done. Good questions

Very good course. There are some errors in the text. The term d(theta)/dt, in (r''- r d(theta)/dt) as given in equation 22, needs to be squared. This affects example 7. In equation 26 the last term should be d(omega)/dt.

Nicely laid out course. The concepts are explained well and the test meshes well with the covered material.

This course covers basic undergraduate engineering concepts in kinematics of particles and rigid body plane motion. The author did an excellent job summarizing those concepts for the intended audience. Since my professional specialty relates to mechanical engineering dynamics and control systems up through the advanced levels, this was an easy course for me. If you don't have a background in this area, or you've forgotten what you supposedly learned in school, then you might struggle a little more than I did. However, the material is very well laid out and easy to follow. I only found a couple of instances where there was some ambiguity. For example, one instance was the slider-crank in example #10, where it would have been helpful if the author had drawn the reference frame in the figure, so that it was clear what directions he was assuming positive, although I figured that out quickly by studying the signed quantities in the vector equations. Overall, I thought this course was well done, and I give it the highest rating.

Good review of dynamics.
Before taking course ,one should review some basic calculus and vector operations.

This is a very good review of first semester dynamics. Course has good example problems as well as a review of the calculus needed to solve example and test problems
