Download or read book Calculus A Rigorous First Course written by Daniel J. Velleman and published by Courier Dover Publications. This book was released on 2017-01-18 with total page 737 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Designed for undergraduate mathematics majors, this rigorous and rewarding treatment covers the usual topics of first-year calculus: limits, derivatives, integrals, and infinite series. Author Daniel J. Velleman focuses on calculus as a tool for problem solving rather than the subject's theoretical foundations. Stressing a fundamental understanding of the concepts of calculus instead of memorized procedures, this volume teaches problem solving by reasoning, not just calculation. The goal of the text is an understanding of calculus that is deep enough to allow the student to not only find answers to problems, but also achieve certainty of the answers' correctness. No background in calculus is necessary. Prerequisites include proficiency in basic algebra and trigonometry, and a concise review of both areas provides sufficient background. Extensive problem material appears throughout the text and includes selected answers. Complete solutions are available to instructors.
Download or read book Physics written by Eugene Hecht and published by Brooks/Cole Publishing Company. This book was released on 2000 with total page 688 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hecht brings to bear the perspective of both historical concepts and contemporary physics. While the text covers the standard range of material from kinematics to quantum physics, Hecht has carefully limited the math required to basic calculus and very basic vector analysis. He omits obscure, high-level topics while focusing on helping students understand the fundamental concepts of modern-day physics. Calculus and vector analysis are both painstakingly developed as tools, and then used only insofar as they illuminate the physics. Hecht deliberately paces comfortably, justifies where each topic is going, stops to take stock of where the students have been, and points out the marvelous unity of the discourse. Informed by a 20th century perspective and a commitment to providing a conceptual overview of the discipline, Hecht's CALCULUS 2/e keeps students involved and focused.
Download or read book Applications of Calculus in Physics written by Brian K. Saltzer and published by . This book was released on 2020-02-22 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to show students of both math and physics the deep relationship between the areas of physics and calculus. In particular: a) How calculus can deepen our understanding of the physical concepts b) How calculus can link together two or more seemingly unrelated physical concepts c) How calculus can be used to help us apply physical concepts to technology d) How calculus provides a mechanism to do physics in alternative ways Because many students might be seeing calculus for the first time, a basic 100-page Calculus Primer has been included in the text immediately following the applications. The Calculus Primer focuses on giving the students a "crash course" in how to calculate a derivative and an integral quickly, rather than on the deep rigor taught in many calculus courses. Formal mathematical language has been intentionally avoided to help students acquire this useful tool as quickly as possible. Because this material is being included in a physics application book rather than a calculus course, the Calculus Primer includes exercises with full solutions. These step-by-step solutions are important since many students will attempt to learn this material on their own. So that the student can immediately see if he/she has executed the calculus correctly using the given rules and algorithms, the solutions have intentionally been left in an "unsimplified" form. As the student works through the ten applications in the book, Connection Boxes are provided in the margins to map the student to the appropriate section of the Calculus Primer to learn the necessary calculus tool to complete the application. Because the Calculus Primer is designed to provide the necessary calculus tools on an "as needed" basis, both the topics covered and their order is somewhat different from that of a standard introductory calculus text. The applications are organized in terms of physical content rather than by calculus content. Consequently, physical concepts that are introduced early in a standard physics course appear earlier in this section than those introduced later in the course. The following examples of the many applications of calculus in physics are covered in this book: 1. Displacement, Velocity, and Acceleration 2. The Work Done by a Variable Force 3. Force and Potential Energy 4. The Electrical-Mechanical Analogy 5. Impulse and Momentum 6. Kepler's Law of Areas and Conservation of Angular Momentum 7. Shockley's Equation and Thermodynamics 8. Simple Harmonic Oscillators 9. The Velocity of a Transverse Wave 10. Lagrangian Physics: An Alternative Way to do Physics To help both the student and the instructor, each application also ends with a set of exercises related to the topic of the application.

Download or read book The Language of Physics written by Elizabeth Garber and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work is the first explicit examination of the key role that mathematics has played in the development of theoretical physics and will undoubtedly challenge the more conventional accounts of its historical development. Although mathematics has long been regarded as the "language" of physics, the connections between these independent disciplines have been far more complex and intimate than previous narratives have shown. The author convincingly demonstrates that practices, methods, and language shaped the development of the field, and are a key to understanding the mergence of the modern academic discipline. Mathematicians and physicists, as well as historians of both disciplines, will find this provocative work of great interest.
Download or read book Applications Of Fractional Calculus In Physics written by Rudolf Hilfer and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2000-03-02 with total page 473 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fractional calculus is a collection of relatively little-known mathematical results concerning generalizations of differentiation and integration to noninteger orders. While these results have been accumulated over centuries in various branches of mathematics, they have until recently found little appreciation or application in physics and other mathematically oriented sciences. This situation is beginning to change, and there are now a growing number of research areas in physics which employ fractional calculus.This volume provides an introduction to fractional calculus for physicists, and collects easily accessible review articles surveying those areas of physics in which applications of fractional calculus have recently become prominent.

Your "calculus anxiety" will rapidly disappear as you work at your own pace on a series of carefully selected work problems. Each correct answer to a work problem leads to new material, while an incorrect response is followed by additional explanations and reviews. This updated edition incorporates the use of calculators and features more applications and examples. ".makes it possible for a person to delve into the mystery of calculus without being mystified." --Physics Teacher
Download or read book Classical Electrodynamics written by Julian Schwinger and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-05-20 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Classical Electrodynamics captures Schwinger's inimitable lecturing style, in which everything flows inexorably from what has gone before. Novel elements of the approach include the immediate inference of Maxwell's equations from Coulomb's law and (Galilean) relativity, the use of action and stationary principles, the central role of Green's functions both in statics and dynamics, and, throughout, the integration of mathematics and physics. Thus, physical problems in electrostatics are used to develop the properties of Bessel functions and spherical harmonics. The latter portion of the book is devoted to radiation, with rather complete treatments of synchrotron radiation and diffraction, and the formulation of the mode decomposition for waveguides and scattering. Consequently, the book provides the student with a thorough grounding in electrodynamics in particular, and in classical field theory in general, subjects with enormous practical applications, and which are essential prerequisites for the study of quantum field theory.An essential resource for both physicists and their students, the book includes a ?Reader's Guide,? which describes the major themes in each chapter, suggests a possible path through the book, and identifies topics for inclusion in, and exclusion from, a given course, depending on the instructor's preference. Carefully constructed problems complement the material of the text, and introduce new topics. The book should be of great value to all physicists, from first-year graduate students to senior researchers, and to all those interested in electrodynamics, field theory, and mathematical physics.The text for the graduate classical electrodynamics course was left unfinished upon Julian Schwinger's death in 1994, but was completed by his coauthors, who have brilliantly recreated the excitement of Schwinger's novel approach.
