This document provides key examples of deriving the formula for the moment of inertia of a certain object. This is done for a hoop, uniform disk and uniform solid cylinder. There is also a detailed example using direct integration and the parallel-axis theorem.

This documents provides lectures notes written by a first year undergrad studying Physics and contains the bulk of the fluids portion of the mechanics module. Several key topics are mentioned, such as density, fluids in motion, the Bernoulli equation and viscosity. Static equilibrium and stress/strain are also included as an extra.

This documents provides lectures notes written by a first year undergrad studying Physics and contains the bulk of the gravity portion of the mechanics module. Several key topics are mentioned, such as gravitation, rotational physics, moment of inertia and centre of mass.

This document entails the bulk of the mechanics module at university in first year. Provides detailed notes on position vectors, linear motion, projectiles, relative motion and all 3 of Newton's Laws. A brief introduction to friction and centripetal motion is also included.

This key document is a cheat sheet and provides all the necessary equations needed for a first year undergrad student studying Physics for a mechanics module exam. A list of key definitions such as Kepler's Laws are also included. A must for exam preparation.

This document entails first year undergrad lecture notes from the Dynamics portion of the Mechanics module. A wide variety of topics are included such as energy, power, work done, potential energy and conservative forces. A brief introduction to the conservation of momentum is also included.
