Book Description
Physics is defined as the “science that deals with matter and energy and their interactions, the physical processes and phenomena of a particular system, and the physical properties and composition of something”. That pretty much covers everything when you think about it. Ernst Rutherford once said, “Physics is everything, the rest is just stamp collecting.” That might be a bit over the top, but physics is the most fundamental of the sciences since it deals with the study of how the universe operates from the very large to the very small. Since the scope of physics ranges from the large scale structure of galaxies to the small scale structure of fundamental particles, and everything in between, it is important to have a uniform language and method for discussing physical phenomena. Fortunately, we don't need the full dictionary of physics for the topics that we will be studying in mechanics and heat. We will only need to define and use those concepts that assist us in understanding topics in mechanics such as linear motion, rotational motion, vibrational motion, and wave motion. We will also investigate thermal physics, so when we reach that point we will introduce some new concepts that will enable us to investigate thermal phenomena.

Advanced Fluid Mechanics and Heat Transfer for Engineers and Scientists
Author: Meinhard T. Schobeiri
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030729257
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 602
Book Description
The current book, Advanced Fluid Mechanics and Heat Transfer is based on author's four decades of industrial and academic research in the area of thermofluid sciences including fluid mechanics, aero-thermodynamics, heat transfer and their applications to engineering systems. Fluid mechanics and heat transfer are inextricably intertwined and both are two integral parts of one physical discipline. No problem from fluid mechanics that requires the calculation of the temperature can be solved using the system of Navier-Stokes and continuity equations only. Conversely, no heat transfer problem can be solved using the energy equation only without using the Navier-Stokes and continuity equations. The fact that there is no book treating this physical discipline as a unified subject in a single book that considers the need of the engineering and physics community, motivated the author to write this book. It is primarily aimed at students of engineering, physics and those practicing professionals who perform aero-thermo-heat transfer design tasks in the industry and would like to deepen their knowledge in this area. The contents of this new book covers the material required in Fluid Mechanics and Heat Transfer Graduate Core Courses in the US universities. It also covers the major parts of the Ph.D-level elective courses Advanced Fluid Mechanics and Heat Transfer that the author has been teaching at Texas A&M University for the past three decades.

Mechanics, Heat, and the Human Body
Author: Howard D. Goldick
Publisher: Pearson
ISBN:
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 228
Book Description
This unique introduction to physics for readers who are particularly interested in the human body covers a limited number of distinct physics topics (related to mechanics and heat) in great depth and with many examples and problems that relate directly to readers' interests. Each topic is developed quantitatively using high school-level algebra (linear equations, simultaneous equations), trigonometric functions, and vectors. Applications focus on typical situations--e.g., the need for and proper use of a cane; the need for heat transfer from the body to the environment during exercise and the relative contributions of the various mechanisms (convection, radiation, evaporation of sweat); the relation between energy ingested as food and energy expended during exercise; etc. Motion; Force; Vectors; Newton's Second Law; Momentum And Impulse; Angular Motion; Torque; Shoulder; Knee; Lower Back; FHP; Heat And Energy; Conservation Of Energy; Work; Chemical Energy; Elastic Energy; Nuclear Energy. For premedical students, Physical Therapists, and Occupational Therapists.

The Mechanical Universe
Author: Steven C. Frautschi
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1139642901
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 603
Book Description
This innovative physics textbook intended for science and engineering majors develops classical mechanics from a historical perspective. The presentation of the standard course material includes a discussion of the thought processes of the discoverers and a description of the methods by which they arrived at their theories. However the presentation proceeds logically rather than strictly chronologically, so new concepts are introduced at the natural moment. The book assumes a familiarity with calculus, includes a discussion of rigid body motion, and contains numerous thought-provoking problems. It is largely based in content on The Mechanical Universe: Introduction to Mechanics and Heat, a book designed in conjunction with a tele-course to be offered by PBS in the Fall of 1985. The advanced edition, however, does not coincide exactly with the video lessons, contains additional material, and develops the fundamental ideas introduced in the lower-level edition to a greater degree.
