Download or read book Physics Terminology written by Speedy Publishing and published by Speedy Publishing LLC. This book was released on 2014-09-25 with total page 5 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many, physics is a difficult subject to master. This is not necessarily because the math or theories are impossible to understand, but often the terminology used in the learning materials is not understood. Having a study guide dedicated to physics terminology on hand is essential to learning physics, because it will make it easy to look up definitions of terms so there is no mistaking what is meant. Once the terminology is clearly defined, it will be much easier to grasp what the various laws, theories and formulas all mean and what factors are needed to be able to solve physics problems.

Download or read book Physics Terminology written by Speedy Publishing and published by Speedy Publishing LLC. This book was released on 2014-08-20 with total page 6 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physics is a difficult class for many students, as there are many complex terms and formulas that students have to understand and use appropriately. Physics textbooks are also lengthy and heavy, with the formulas and definitions not conveniently located. Because of these constraints, a physics textbook is not useful for studying terms and formulas. A physics terminology study guide is a better resource. A study guide provides students with all of the physics formulas and definitions they need in one place. The definitions are often also simplified, so students can understand the terms in plain English. Many terminology study guides can also be put in a binder, so students can use them as a quick reference when in class or on the go.

Download or read book Physics of the Human Body written by Irving P. Herman and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-01-09 with total page 963 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book comprehensively addresses the physics and engineering aspects of human physiology by using and building on first-year college physics and mathematics. Topics include the mechanics of the static body and the body in motion, the mechanical properties of the body, muscles in the body, the energetics of body metabolism, fluid flow in the cardiovascular and respiratory systems, the acoustics of sound waves in speaking and hearing, vision and the optics of the eye, the electrical properties of the body, and the basic engineering principles of feedback and control in regulating all aspects of function. The goal of this text is to clearly explain the physics issues concerning the human body, in part by developing and then using simple and subsequently more refined models of the macrophysics of the human body. Many chapters include a brief review of the underlying physics. There are problems at the end of each chapter; solutions to selected problems are also provided. This second edition enhances the treatments of the physics of motion, sports, and diseases and disorders, and integrates discussions of these topics as they appear throughout the book. Also, it briefly addresses physical measurements of and in the body, and offers a broader selection of problems, which, as in the first edition, are geared to a range of student levels. This text is geared to undergraduates interested in physics, medical applications of physics, quantitative physiology, medicine, and biomedical engineering.

Download or read book Dictionary of Physics written by Michael Chapple and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-04-08 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Dictionary of Physics , central ideas and concepts are carefully introduced and explained. Each entry begins with a clear, one-sentence definition and is followed by an explanation and, where appropriate, by specific examples. The more important and more complex entries are supported by diagrams and by extra explanatory material. If relevant, the initial definition is followed by a word equation, a definition of the unit, and the symbols for the quantity and its unit. The aim of the Dictionary of Physics is to offer a focused account of the subject without leaving out any of the essential steps towards a new concept. Entries contain cross-references in italic to other entries; these further entries either support or extend the ideas of the original entry.

This book was released on 2004-03-11 with total page 1658 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is a translation and revision of the Original Russian version by Baryahktar. It covers all of the main fields involved in Condensed Matter Physics, such as crystallography, electrical properties, fluids, magnetism, material properties, optics, radiation, semiconductors, and superconductivity, as well as highlights of important related subjects such as quantum mechanics, spectroscopy, and statistical mechanics. Both theoretical and experimental aspects of condensed matter are covered in detail. The entries range from very short paragraphs on topics where definitions are needed, such as Bloch's law, clathrate compound, donor, domain, Kondo lattice, mean free path, and Wigner crystal, to long discussions of more general or more comprehensive topics such as antiferromagnetism, crystal lattice dynamics, dislocations, Fermi surface, Josephson effect, luminescence, magnetic films, phase transitions and semiconductors. The main theoretical approaches to Condensed Matter Physics are explained. There are several long tables on, for example, Bravais lattices, characteristics of magnetic materials, units of physical quantities, symmetry groups. The properties of the main elements of the periodic table are given. Numerous entries not covered by standard Solid State Physics texts o Self-similarity o The adiabatic approximation o Bistability Emphasis on materials not discussed in standard texts o Activated carborn o Austenite o Bainite o Calamitics o Carbine o Delat phase o Discotics o Gunier-Preston zones o Heterodesmic structures o Heusler Alloys o Stress and strain deviators o Vicalloy · Each entry is fully cross-referenced to help tracking down all aspects of a topic under investigation Highly illustrated to clarify many concepts
