Mechanics: Fundamentals of Physics for 11 and 12 Class

by V.K. Sachan

Mechanics is one of the basic units in the preparation of Medical and Engineering entrance examinations. A beginner mostly starts with this unit in Physics. Mechanics is not only a lengthy portion in Physics but it forms the basis of entire Physics. Mechanics begins with Kinematics which deals with the motion of particle in one and two dimension. This portion along with the next topic Newton's Laws of Motion fetches 2-3 questions in the Medical and Engineering Entrance examinations every year. Work Power and Energy, Conservation of Momentum and Collision, Centre of Mass and Rotational Dynamics becomes very important portion from the viewpoint of Examination. These topics together form the heart of Mechanics. It is a point to note that this unit of Mechanics can be easily dealt with the proper understanding of the concept which is strengthened with practice of numerical problems. The chapters which come in class 11 and 12 under mechanical physics are:1.Kinematics: Deals with the motion of particle in one and two dimension2.Laws of Motion: Covers Newton's Three Laws of Motion3.Work, Energy & Power: Deals with kinetic and potential energies, work-energy theorem, and power4.Rotational Motion: Comprises of basic concepts of rotational motion, force, torque, and angular momentum5.Gravitation: Universal law of gravitation, Kepler's law of planetary motion6.Properties of solids and liquids: Hooke's law, Young's modulus, Bernoulli's principle, Newton's law of cooling, Pascal's law7.Thermodynamics: Thermal equilibrium, zeroth law, first and second law of thermodynamics8.Kinetic Theory of Gases: Concept of pressure, RMS speed, law of equipartition, Avogadro's number9.Oscillation & Waves: Periodic motion, Simple harmonic motion, wave motion, Doppler effect.Each chapter contains a large number of solved example or problem which will help the students in problem solving. This text book "Mechanics " is organized into Five Chapters. Chapter -1: Physics Measurement Chapter-2: Kinematics Chapter-3: Laws of Motion Chapter- 4: Work, Energy and Power Chapter-5: Rotational MotionSalient Features-Comprehensive Coverage of Physics Measurement, Kinematics, Laws of Motion, Work, Energy & Power and Rotational Motion.-Each chapter contains a large number of solved example or objective type's problem which will help the students in problem solving of Physics.-Clear perception of the various problems with a large number of neat, well drawn and illustrative diagrams. -Simple Language, easy- to- understand manner.Our sincere thanks are due to all Scientists, Engineers, Authors and Publishers, whose works and text have been the source of enlightenment, inspiration and guidance to us in presenting this small book. I will appreciate any suggestions from students and faculty members alike so that we can strive to make the text book more useful in the edition to come.
