Advanced Level Mathematics: Mechanics 2 by Douglas Quadling - 2007

Cambridge University Press, 2007. Softcover. New. This book is part of a series of textbooks created for the new Cambridge International Examinations (CIE) mathematics syllabus. The authors have worked with CIE to assure that the content matches the syllabus and is pitched at a suitable level. Mechanics 2 corresponds to syllabus unit M2. The syllabus content is arranged in chapters to provide a viable teaching course. Each chapter starts with a list of learning objectives. Mathematical concepts, terminology and notation are explained clearly and carefully. Key results and procedures appear in boxes for easy reference. Stimulating worked examples take a step-by-step approach to problem solving. There are plenty of exercises throughout, as well as revision exercises and practice exam papers – all written by experienced examiners. Contents Introduction 1. The motion of projectiles 2.
