The page you are reading is part of a draft (v2.0) of the "No bullshit guide to math and physics."
The text has since gone through many edits and is now available in print and electronic format. The current edition of the book is v4.0, which is a substantial improvement in terms of content and language (I hired a professional editor) from the draft version.
I'm leaving the old wiki content up for the time being, but I highly engourage you to check out the finished book. You can check out an extended preview here (PDF, 106 pages, 5MB).
Introduction
Before we get started with the equations, it is worthwhile to give a high level overview of the material which we will cover in this book.
In Chapter 1, we
In Chapter 2, we will start to look at how mathematics can be used to describe and model the world around. We will learn about the basic laws which govern the motion of objects in one dimension and the equations that describe them.
In Chapter 3, we will learn about vectors. Vectors are used to describe directional quantities like, for example, the velocity of a moving object.
Once we know vectors we start to study the motion of objects in the real, three-dimensional world instead of just a single dimension. Chapter 4 is all about Mechanics, which is the study of the motion of objects and more abstract concepts like momentum and energy.
Chapter 5 optics
Chapter 6 covers calculus: limits, derivatives and integrals. Develop these tools….
Finally in Chapter 7 we will study linear algebra
Let's get started.
