Sums, Approximations, and Asymptotics II Block Stacking How far can a stack of identical blocks overhang the end of a table without toppling over? Can a block be suspended entirely beyond the table's edge? Table Physics imposes some constraints on the arrangement of the blocks. In particular, the stack falls off the desk if its center of mass lies beyond the desk's edge. Moreover, the center of mass of the top k blocks must lie above the(k+1)-st block;
简介:学生已学完普通物理力学课程(教材: Halliday et al, Fundamentals of Physics, Sixth edition,2001, John Wiley& Sons Inc或其它),实际上已掌握了理论力学课程中矢量力学部分的若干内容。本课 程要求以较少时间复习与学习矢量力学,以掌握其核心内容;大部分时间放在学习分析力学上面

Theories and Experiments The goal of physics is to develop theories based on experiments A theory is a \guess,\expressed mathematically, about how system works The theory makes predictions about how a system should work Experiments check the theories' predictions Every theory is a work in progress
