Classical Mechanics – Taylor Chapter 2 – Projectiles and Charged Particles

This is a lecture summarizing Taylor’s Chapter 2 – Projectiles and Charged Particles. This is part of a series of lectures for Phys 311 & 312 Classical Mechanics I & II for physics majors taught at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. This is from one cold take of a physics lecture and is not heavily edited.

If you would like to review these topics at an introductory level please see videos for introductory classical mechanics from 2023

or older videos from 2022

Both of those playlists follow the OpenStax University Physics textbook.
