Teaching Method

Outline:
Learn about mechanics, which is the most important part of classical physics, which forms the basis of natural science. Cultivate the ability to think systematically and logically through lectures, and acquire the ability to solve various problems in mechanics. Further develop the content of "physics" learned so far, and solve complex natural phenomena by using "mathematics" including calculus and vector analysis.
Style:
In lectures, basic matters are explained, and the ability to solve problems is cultivated through self-study.
