Description
CBS Publishers & Distributors Fundamentals Of University Physics, Volume 1 by Otieno
This book focuses on the principles of the foundation courses that enable the student to acquire a general knowledge in the field and also establish a solid base for further studies in physics. The book is based on first year university lecture materials that have been modified and improved over the years, and is designed to make the study of physics at this level more consistent and motivating. Considerable attention is given to sample problems and guides to their solutions. These provide the student with the opportunity to practise how to apply theoretical knowledge in solving problems. In addition to this development of problem-solving skills, the student is also able to independently perform self-evaluation through appropriate use of the provided guides and get deeper insight into the linkage between theory and practical application of knowledge. The book should prove useful not only to students of Physics but also to students of Applied Sciences in general including mechanical and electrical engineering.
