MET 475 - Kinematics and Dynamics for Engineering Technology

4 credit(s)
The study of kinematics and the kinetics of particles. Various concepts such as force, mass and acceleration, kinetics of rigid bodies, work and energy, impulse and momentum are explored. Graphic and mathematical solutions are used to explore velocity and acceleration graphs; linkages, instant centers, cams, gear trains, static and inertia forces in machines, flywheels, and balancing of rotating and reciprocating mechanisms. Three lecture hours, three lab hours.
Prerequisite(s): MET 236 and PHY 121.
Laboratory fee.
