Physics H7a:
Honors Mechanics
Useful Links

Please feel free to e-mail me with suggestions!

• UC Berkeley Physics Lecture Demonstrations
• Mechanics and Special Relativity course at Harvard, some demos and all lecture notes online. More advanced than this course, has lots of fun stuff for further reading.
• Relativity site, tutorial, goes on to general relativity also
• Morin's Textbook (online, not yet out). More advanced material and lots of interesting (solved) problems.
• Waves course at Harvard, more detailed than we get, but first part of course directly relevant
  
  
• Some cool applets
• Ask the Experts--Classical Mechanics
• Classical Mechanics, Physics Encyclopedia
• Classical Mechanics sites by google.com
• Classical Mechanics Links
• Mechanics in Eric Weisstein's Treasure Trove of Physics
