Physics For Engineers is designed to serve as a text for the first course in physics for engineering students of most of the technical universities in India. It can also be used as an introductory text for science graduates.
This book provides a clear, precise and accessible coverage of fundamentals of physics through succinct presentation, logical organization, and sound pedagogical order. Extensive care has been taken to apprise the students regarding the applied aspects of the concepts in physics. Most of the complex ideas are supported by explanatory figures to make the underlying concepts easy to understand and grasp. The text has some 275 such illustrations to reflect the concepts and aid the explanations. The wide range of topics this book covers, make it an excellent textbook for students as each chapter is relatively self-contained, and most of the chapters have practical utility.
