This is a physics book which is suitable for students in high schools or secondary schools. It will also serve as a useful tool for students who are preparing for entrance examinations into colleges and universities. Students in the higher institutions taking courses in physics under waves, oscillations and vibrations will also find this eBook useful.
In this book you will find great and useful formulas and worked examples under waves and sounds in physics. The worked examples are provided to comprehensively apply formulas provided and to cover a large part of waves and sounds. Each worked example has been well simplified in details to enhance a very clear understanding of calculations in this branch of physics.
Numerous exercises at the end of each chapter are intended to test students' understanding of the topic. These exercises can serve as a form of workbook for students. Therefore students are thus presented with an effective means of self-assessment whereby they can determine their individual strengths and revision needs.
A major objective of the author is to adequately prepare students by ensuring that the book arouse and sustain their interest in physics. This is done by illustrating how typical and complex numerical problems are solved.
The book covers the major topics in wave and sound waves: waves – general equation of waves, graphical and mathematical representation of waves, echoes, beat, vibration of air columns in open and closed pipes, modes of vibration of a stretched string, the pitch as a characteristic of sound, and Doppler effects in sound.
These contents are organized in a spiral structure, such that the explanation flows in a logical and intelligible manner. I hope that this book will make the study of physics a truly enjoyable intellectual pursuit. A constructive review of this textbook will be highly appreciated from buyers so as to give ideas to others who intend to purchase a copy of this eBook, and also to be a form of advice for the author when revising the book.
