Philosophy of Physics


Book Description

Philosophy of physics is concerned with the deepest theories of modern physics - quantum theory, our theories of space, time and symmetry, and thermal physics - and their strange, even bizarre conceptual implications. This book explores the core topics in philosophy of physics, and discusses their relevance for both scientists and philosophers.




Complete General Science for IAS


Book Description

Science is valued mostly for its practical advantages though it is also valued of gratifying disinterested curiosity and as an object of great aesthetic charm. It is quite obvious that the bulk of mankind, value science, chiefly for the practical advantages it brings with it.PART - IPHYSICSSl. No. TOPICS PAGE No.1. Wave Theory 1-32. Sound 4-123.

General Physics


Book Description

Presents, at a level suitable for undergraduates and technical college students, the basic physical theory of mechanics and the molecular structure of matter. The material contained in the work should correspond quite closely to courses of lectures given to undergraduate students of physics in Britain and America.




Principles and Applications of General Physics. Volume 1: Mechanics, Waves and Fluids


Book Description

This book is an entry-level undergraduate physics textbook, which is suitable for physics, pre-engineering, pre-medical, pre-law, biotechnology or general science students. The approach adopted in this text places emphasis on simplifying abstract concepts by using short derivations of important equations as well as introducing problem-solving strategies that will help the reader to learn quickly to apply simple concepts to solve complex problems in general physics. To address any deficiency in mathematical knowledge needed to succeed in a physics course, Chapter Zero reviews important mathematics concepts that are generally encountered in physics. In addition, each chapter contains several different solved problems in different areas. Additional practice problems are also included in each chapter.




Sciencia


Book Description

Collects six short illustrated volumes covering topics in mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, evolution, and astronomy.

General Physics, Study Guide


Book Description

Introduces physics to science students with a wide range of interests. Unlike many other physics texts, the coverage and emphasis here is influenced by the specific needs of science majors, including those in the life sciences, and thus treats topics such as geometric optics, mechanics of fluids and acoustics. The derivative is introduced in Chapter One and integrals are used sparingly until electricity and magnetism are covered. Entire chapters are devoted to applications of physics covering subjects such as nerve conduction, ionizing radiation and nuclear magnetic resonance, demonstrating the widespread utility of physics and the unity of science. To aid in comprehension, calculations involving calculus are carried out with a good deal of detail and discussion. Each chapter features a checklist of terms to define or explain as well as problems and exercises. Additional problems and exercises are located in the Supplementary Topics section.
