Mechanics (F3210)

15 credits, Level 4

Autumn teaching

On this module, you’ll study classical mechanics.

You’ll learn about concepts including:

  • linear and rotational motion
  • forces
  • Newton’s laws
  • momentum
  • angular momentum
  • energy.

You’ll apply these concepts to settings such as Newtonian gravity and the harmonic oscillator.

We regularly review our modules to incorporate student feedback, staff expertise, as well as the latest research and teaching methodology. We鈥檙e planning to run these modules in the academic year 2026/27. However, there may be changes to these modules in response to feedback, staff availability, student demand or updates to our curriculum.

We鈥檒l make sure to let you know of any material changes to modules at the earliest opportunity.
