This book of problems and solutions in classical mechanics is dedicated to junior or senior undergraduate students in physics, engineering, applied mathematics, astronomy, or chemistry who may want to improve their problems solving skills, or to freshman graduate students who may be seeking a refresh of the material. The book is structured in ten chapters, starting with Newton's laws, motion with air resistance, conservation laws, oscillations and the Lagrangian and Hamiltonian Formalisms. The last two chapters introduce some ideas in nonlinear dynamics, chaos, and special relativity. Each chapter starts with a brief theoretical outline, and continues with problems and detailed solutions. A brief presentation of differential equations can be found in the appendix. A variety of problems are presented, from the standard classical mechanics problems, to context rich problems and more challenging problems.
