Course Rationale Dynamics of Rigid Bodies focuses on the kinetics and kinematics of a particle and/ or body including its work,
and Description energy, impulse and momentum. After understanding what is force and its static effect, this course aims to
further describe force’s dynamic effect which contribute motion to the body. The knowledge that will be
extracted from the course is expected to be useful enough in understanding engineering issues and
furthermore in solving various mechanics problems involving dynamics.

Teaching, Lecture – Discussion

Learning, and Students are required to attend the class regularly. Active participation of the students during discussion is
Assessment expected. Students are encouraged to prepared as they will be assessed through the discussions too. Students
Strategies must engage with the course materials, i.e. reading textbooks and other assigned advanced readings.

Problem Solving
Within the discussion of every topic, a sample problem will be presented, analyzed and solved by the
instructor. Afterwards, the students will be given another problem or sets of sample problems which will be
analyzed and solved in the class applying the principles discussed. Students may be chosen to solve some of
the problems which will also serve as an assessment of the students’ learning.

Major Exams
There will be two (2) major examinations. The examination will cover the topics discussed for the given
period but may include some topics from the preceding period due to the continuity of concepts.

Quizzes
There will be two quizzes to be conducted in the classroom and will cover the topics discussed for the given
period but may include some topics from the preceding period due to the continuity of concepts. given period
but may include some topics from the preceding period due to the continuity of concepts.

Problem Sets/ Activities/Seatwork

Two problem sets will be assigned to the student. These will help students to fully understand the concepts
being discussed in the class. Though these are supposed to be done through individual effort, students are
still encouraged to discuss with others the problems and the strategies to solve the problems. However, the
discussions must end as they write their solutions. Thus, the work on the paper must be each student’s work.
