Discovering the Natural Laws: The Experimental Basis of PhysicsCourier Corporation, 1989. gada 1. janv. - 242 lappuses In this enlightening and accessible guide for the layman, a distinguished physicist offers mind-stretching discussions of the logic and experimental basis underlying a host of crucial scientific concepts: the classical laws of motion and gravitation, conservation of energy and momentum, electrodynamics, th principal of relativity and many more. In explicating the woirk of Newton, Helmholtz, Maxwell, Einstein annd other immortals of science, Dr. Rothman outlines numerous precise experiments designed to verify their theories, tests often utilizing the most sophisticated method of modern physics, such as the laser and the Mossbauer effect. |
