Description
Harun Akon’s Classical Physics: Concepts, Applications, and Interpretations makes classical physics and its applications accessible and engaging, fostering a deeper understanding of fundamental physics concepts. Accessibly written, this book helps students understand and put core classical physics principles into practice, from classical mechanics to astrophysics to the basics of atomic, molecular, and chemical physics. Additionally, the book provides easy-to-understand methods for explaining orbital motion using the concept of jerk, and similarly explores negative pressure and its applications in various fields, tying in new interpretations of negative pressure as a fifth force in the universe. Classical Physics: Concepts, Applications, and Interpretations’ goal is to bridge the gap between classical physics and its applications in different disciplines, providing students and researchers with a more intuitive and accurate understanding of these fundamental concepts. The book includes structured content and corresponding applications and figures, complemented by simple experiments to bolster students’ understanding. From an explanation of orbital motion to navigating the thermodynamics of negative pressure to diving into artificial lunar motion, the book provides novel insights into these phenomena. This helpful first edition delivers engaging explanations and additions to the role and importance of classical physics in our modern understanding of the field. It is ideal for courses in physics, mathematics, and related subjects.
