Introducing technology students to basic concepts of physics and its applications through interesting, practical examples (such as karate as an example of impulse), this book covers topics in statics, mechanics, fluids, heat, vibrations and sound, light, atomic physics, nuclear physics and electronics. Special applications include simple machines, heat engines, optical instruments and solid-state electronics. The text also covers a number of applications not treated in other textbooks, including integrated circuits, x-ray identification of elements, optical spectroscopy and holography, and the use of density measurement as a tool for nondestructive chemical analysis. Each chapter contains a large number of worked examples.
