Principles of Physics

by Dr David Hoxley

On completion of this unit, students will be able to solve problems in classical physics (mechanics, thermodynamics, waves and optics) which provide the basis for further study in physics, engineering or another science. They will be able to use the essential apparatus in a physics laboratory to take and analyse measurements, and understand the vocabulary and concepts of classical physics. The topics covered include linear and rotational kinematics and dynamics, geometric optics, thermodynamics, and simple harmonic motion.
