    Momentum, Work and Energy, Rotation of Rigid Bodies, Angular Momentum,Equilibrium and Elasticity, Universal Gravitation, Fluid Mechanics and Oscillations are

    covered through chapters 1-18 of the textbook.

    Homework: The students are required to solve and submit the homework problems that arementioned at the end of the syllabus. The assignments will not be collected at the end of

    each chapter however a selection of them will be collected to grade on the homework
