Book Description
Written by a former Olympiad student, Wang Jinhui, and a Physics Olympiad national trainer, Bernard Ricardo, Competitive Physics delves into the art of solving challenging physics puzzles. This book not only expounds a multitude of physics topics from the basics but also illustrates how these theories can be applied to problems, often in an elegant fashion. With worked examples that depict various problem-solving sleights of hand and interesting exercises to enhance the mastery of such techniques, readers will hopefully be able to develop their own insights and be better prepared for physics competitions. Ultimately, problem-solving is a craft that requires much intuition. Yet, this intuition can only be honed by mentally trudging through an arduous but fulfilling journey of enigmas. Mechanics and Waves is the first of a two-part series which will discuss general problem-solving methods, such as exploiting the symmetries of a system, to set a firm foundation for other topics.

Wave Mechanics
Author: Gunter Ludwig
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 1483145808
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 237
Book Description
Selected Readings in Physics: Wave Mechanics provides information pertinent to the fundamental aspects of wave mechanics. This book discusses the discovery of quantum mechanics. Organized into two parts encompassing five chapters and eight papers, this book begins with an overview of the essential parts of a theory, including a mathematical system, a domain of determinable facts, and a system of prescriptions correlating mathematical quantities and physical facts. This text then describes the classical model of electrons as mass points. Other chapters consider the connections between mathematically calculated quantities and physically measured quantities. This book discusses as well the relationship between the concepts of frequency and energy. The final paper deals with the theory of collision processes in which the transition probabilities are determined by the asymptomatic behavior of aperiodic solutions. This book is a valuable resource for physicists, scientists, and research workers.

Publisher: Anthem Press
ISBN: 0857284029
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 539
Book Description
This collection of exercises, compiled for talented high school students, encourages creativity and a deeper understanding of ideas when solving physics problems. Described as 'far beyond high-school level', this book grew out of the idea that teaching should not aim for the merely routine, but challenge pupils and stretch their ability through creativity and thorough comprehension of ideas.

Wave Physics
Author: Stephen Nettel
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3662108704
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
The classical physics of oscillations and waves is developed here at a more advanced mathematical level than is customary for second-year courses. The detailed explanation of the phenomena provides a sound basis for the introduction to wave mechanics that follows. A chapter on nonlinear waves and solitons, as well as contributions on chaos and associated phenomena broaden the concepts of wave behavior, while introducing the reader to important topics in current wave physics. Directed primarily at undergraduates in physics, mathematics and engineering, this will also be useful as a reference for graduate students, and for professors looking for examination questions. This revised second edition contains a number of new examples and exercises.
