This book is intended as a textbook for the first-year undergraduate engineering students of all disciplines. The text, written in a student-friendly manner, covers a wide range of topics of engineering interest both from the domains of applied and modern physics. It is meticulously tailored to cover the syllabi needs of almost all the Indian universities and institutes. With its exhaustive treatment of different topics in one volume, it relieves the engineering students of the arduous task of referring to several books. Besides engineering students, this book will be equally useful to the BSc (Physics) students of different universities. Key Features Simple and clear diagrams throughout the book help students in understanding the concepts clearly. Numerous in-chapter solved problems, chapter-end unsolved problems (with answers) and review questions assist students in assimilating the theory comprehensively. A large number of objective type questions at the end of each chapter help students in testing their knowledge of the theory.
