Description


Product Description:

This book stresses the similarities between apparently quite different areas of physics, tying together similar phenomena wherever they may appear in mechanics, acoustics, optics, electricity, heat, or theoretical physics. Intended as an aid to learning and understanding for undergraduate students, it will undoubtedly be useful to their teachers and will appeal to older physicists.

 From the Preface:

If you are a science or engineering student who has already
studied the first principles of physics, please imagine that we have
written this book especially for you. Even if you are as far along
as first-year graduate studies, you may find here some insights
which will help you to tie together what you have already studied.

The edifice of physics is not nearly as complicated as it often
appears to a beginning student. The purpose of this book is to tie
similar phenomena together, wherever they may appear, in
mechanics, acoustics, optics, electricity, heat, or theoretical
physics and to call your attention to the similarities among them.
By developing the habit of recognizing similarities, you can
reduce the amount of material you have to learn. By developing a
more comprehensive view of nature you will likely experience
intellectual satisfaction and achieve confidence in dealing with
new ideas, whether encountered in textbook problems or in real
life situations.

In a little book Similarities in Wave Behavior, one of us (JNS)
pointed out similar features of waves as they propagate, reflect,
superpose, resonate, interfere, etc. Analogies were displayed
among the behaviors of waves on mechanical, acoustical,
electrical, optical, and thermal wave systems. The reader was
invited, for example, to ponder how the non-reflecting coatings
on the lenses of his binoculars are similar to the quarter-wave
impedance-matching transformers on a wave guide transmission
line. Similarities in Physics extends the philosophy of the earlier
book: physics may be simpler than you think; nature is
marvelously regular in its behavior; analogies helpfully link what
is being studied to what is already understoo
