Download or read book Experimental Physics a Text Book of Mechanics Heat Sound and Light written by Harold A. Wilson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-24 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Experimental Physics a Text-Book of Mechanics, Heat, Sound and Light This book is intended as a text-book for use in connection with a course of experimental lectures on mechanics, properties of matter, heat, sound and light. No previous knowledge of physics is assumed, but nevertheless the book is primarily intended for a first year college course, and the majority of the students attending such a course have studied elementary physics at school. The writing of such a book does not offer much scope for originality; the aim of the writer should be to present fundamental principles clearly and accurately. The chief difficulty is to decide what to include and what to leave out. I have endeavoured to leave out everything not of fundamental importance. It is important for the student to learn some facts and to get to understand some methods and fundamental principles; if he learns nothing about certain phenomena no harm is done and he can make up the deficiency in his knowledge at a later date if necessary. The kind of text-book which contains a little about everything does more harm than good. Care has been taken not to discuss questions which cannot be treated adequately in an elementary way and to avoid stating formulae without proving them. A few experiments are rather fully described in nearly every chapter; these have been selected from the many which might have been merely mentioned. In Part I, Chapters VI, VII and parts of IX may be omitted at the first reading. In Part II, Chapters X and XI may also be omitted by students whose time is limited.

Download or read book Case Studies in Experimental Physics written by Ronald Laymon and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-09-24 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the pursuit and further investigation of experimental results by analyzing classic examples from physics. The authors concentrate on the investigation of experimental results by examining case studies from the history of 20th and 21st century physics. Discussions on the discovery of parity nonconservation, the rise and fall of the Fifth Force, the search for neutrinoless double β decay, supersymmetry and the expansion of the Standard Model, and measurements of the anomalous magnetic moment of the muons are provided. Experimental results may achieve acceptance to the point that even well known principles, such as conservation of energy and quantization, lose their status as accepted. Such principles and their options are treated on an equal footing as being pursuit worthy even though there is no plausible explanation as to why and how they might have failed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Principles of Mechanics, Vol. 1: An Elementary Exposition, for Students of Physics The material contained in these chapters has taken on its present form gradually, by a process of recasting and sifting. The ideas guiding that process have been three: first, to select the subject-matter with close reference to the needs of college students; second, to bring the instruction into adjustment with the actual stage of their training; and, third, to aim continually at treating Mechanics as a system of organized thought, having a clearly recognizable culture value. The result has been maturing under the suggestive influences of repeated presentation to a class of junior grade in the University who have brought to their task a working knowledge of calculus and a good groundwork of experimental physics. The distinctive traits in this attempt to set forth connectedly the conceptions and methods of the science are reproduced from the informal lectures of the class-room, as delivered for several years past. Advantage has been taken, however, of the larger opportunity in writing for publication, to make at some points a completer and more systematic formulation of fundamental doctrine. The seventh chapter has been incorporated here from another course of instruction, in part, at least, because its problems afford exactly the illustration needed of the difference between mathematical and physical forces.

Download or read book Methods for Experimental Design written by J.L. Goupy and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1993-05-05 with total page 467 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A method for organizing and conducting scientific experiments is described in this volume which enables experimenters to reduce the number of trials run, while retaining all the parameters that may influence the result. The choice of ideal experiments is based on mathematical concepts, but the author adopts a practical approach and uses theory only when necessary. Written for experimenters by an experimenter, it is an introduction to the philosophy of scientific investigation. Researchers with limited time and resources at their disposal will find this text a valuable guide for solving specific problems efficiently. The presentation makes extensive use of examples, and the approach and methods are graphical rather than numerical. All calculations can be performed on a personal computer; readers are assumed to have no previous knowledge of the subject. The presentation is such that the beginner may acquire a thorough understanding of the basic concepts. However, there is also sufficient material to challenge the advanced student. The book is, therefore, suitable for both first and advanced courses. The many examples can also be used in detail for self-study or as a reference.

Download or read book The Theory of Relativity written by Qing-Ping Ma and published by Nova Science Publishers. This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theory of relativity has been hailed as one of the two most important scientific discoveries in the 20th century. This book presents a comprehensive introduction and analysis of the special theory of relativity and its logical and experimental foundations. It explains in detail the basic principles of the relativity theory, introduces all the important experiments and examines the logic in the reasoning of relativistic results and conclusions. The two fundamental postulates, the principle of relativity and the constancy of the speed of light, are extensively discussed in relation to historical and modern experimental findings. The interpretations of all important experimental results in the history of special relativity and the derivations of key theoretical results in special relativity are scrutinized for their logical consistency, uniqueness to special relativity, and simplicity in explanation compared with competing theories. The ten chapters of this book cover 1) the two postulates, their experimental evidence and logical foundation; 2) the Michelson-Morley experiment and all other important experiments on the speed of light and the medium of light including stellar aberration, the Fizeau experiment, Trouton experiment, Trouton-Noble experiment, Sagnac experiment, Kennedy-Thorndike experiment, Ives-Stilwell experiment, and many modern experiments; 3) the derivation of the Lorentz transformation; 4) the variables in the Lorentz transformation and the principle of relativity; 5) time dilation, its experimental evidence and the twin paradox; 6) length contraction and length paradoxes; 7) motion mass and its derivation, relativistic momentum and experimental evidence; 8) mass-energy relation, its derivation and experimental evidence; 9) time and simultaneity; 10) test theories and experimental verification of special relativity. This book is suitable for both academics and students in science and philosophy and other readers who are interested in physics and its associated philosophical issues; space-time theories; the logical foundation of scientific discoveries; the history of science; the methodology of science, especially researchers and students in physics and the philosophy of science.

Download or read book Simple Experiments in Physics written by Lothrop Davis Higgins and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-25 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Simple Experiments in Physics The purpose of this manual is to teach some of the principles of physics that ore commonly applied in things about us, and in such a way that the study shall be a training in observation and thinking. It may be used in courses where the important object is to afford such training, or in courses where its function is mainly to illustrate the subjects studied. To secure the first of these objects, the matter has been so arranged that the student shall have been prepared for each exercise by the work preceding it; and the exercise, drawing upon this knowledge, will add to it a single fact or principle by demonstrating its operation and by suggestive questioning. The same exercises may serve also the second purpose, and many of them show directly the application of principles in things about us. In general, the material to be used is simple and not costly. Such material often serves best, because it divests the operation of strange or unusual features and directs the attention rather to the thing shown than to the method of showing it. The manner of using this set of exercises may, of course, be adapted to the desires of the teacher and the facilities at hand.
