Excerpt from Elementary Principles of Physics
Following the thirty-two chapters covering the topics of the usual first course in Physics, there are additional chap ters treating special material of wide general interest and importance. These chapters deal with such subjects as the Automobile, Radio, Engines, Radium and Radioactivity, and Water Power, and should prove a valuable fund of material for the teacher who has more than the usual time allotment for the subject and to the student who desires to pursue topics that are of special interest to him.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a fresh approach to understanding the physical world around us, moving away from the traditional, formula-heavy method of teaching physics. It aims to ignite students' curiosity by exploring the "how" and "why" behind scientific phenomena, rather than just the "how much." The author prioritizes observation and comprehension over rote memorization and complex calculations. Concepts like the kinetic theory of gases, the wave theory of light, and the role of electrons in electricity are introduced early on, providing a foundation for understanding the mechanics of solids and the quantitative aspects of light and heat later in the course. This book is enriched with numerous demonstration experiments, thought-provoking questions, and engaging exercises designed to encourage active learning and critical thinking. It covers a wide range of topics, from the fundamental principles of matter and force to practical applications in areas like engines, radio communication, and water power. Through its clear explanations and abundant illustrations, this book empowers readers to grasp the interconnectedness of physical phenomena in their everyday lives and appreciate the elegant simplicity of the principles governing the universe.
