Rees, Gareth, 1959-| Call Number | 530/.076 |
| Author | Rees, Gareth, 1959- author. |
| Title | Physics by example : 200 problems and solutions / W.G. Rees. |
| Physical Description | 1 online resource (xiii, 374 pages) : digital, PDF file(s). |
| Notes | Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 05 Oct 2015). |
| Contents | Physical constants and other data -- Mathematical notes -- Hints for solving physics problems -- A note about significant figures -- Dimensions, errors and statistical analysis -- Classical mechanics and dynamics -- Gravitation and orbits -- Special relativity -- Quantum, atomic and nuclear physics -- Oscillations and waves -- Optics -- Electromagnetism -- Electric circuits -- Thermodynamics. |
| Summary | Physics by Example contains two hundred problems from a wide range of key topics, along with detailed, step-by-step solutions. By guiding the reader through carefully chosen examples, this book will help to develop skill in manipulating physical concepts. Topics dealt with include: statistical analysis, classical mechanics, gravitation and orbits, special relativity, basic quantum physics, oscillations and waves, optics, electromagnetism, electric circuits, and thermodynamics. There is also a section listing physical constants and other useful data, including a summary of some important mathematical results. In discussing the key factors and most suitable methods of approach for given problems, this book imparts many useful insights, and will be invaluable to anyone taking first or second year undergraduate courses in physics. |
