Synopsis Test Your General Science Knowledge by : Chris McMullen

Test the scope of your general science knowledge. How familiar are you with common terms like osmosis, sublimation, mitosis, pneumatic, precession, dendrite, inductance, and isostasy? How familiar are you with famous scientists like Ptolemy, Archimedes, Galileo, Dalton, Mendel, Hooke, Lavoisier, and Einstein? Can you think of examples of amphibians, elemental forms of carbon, dwarf planets, kinds of weathering, polar liquids, applications of Faraday's law, or types of digestive enzymes? Can you explain basic concepts like why the sky appears blue, how photosynthesis works, which blood transfusions are possible, or how to make a Punnett square? Are you good with numbers like the boiling point of water in Fahrenheit, the charge of an electron in Coulombs, the number of ribs in a typical adult human, the century when Leonardo da Vinci was born, or the half-life of carbon-14? Do you know what common abbreviations stand for, like NASA, EKG, XRT, HTML, VSEPR, or LHC? Are you familiar with basic laws and principles like Newton's laws of motion, Boyle's law, capillary action, plate tectonics, Kepler's laws, or Mendel's laws? Do you remember equations like the formula for molarity, percent error, Coulomb's law, the half-life of a radioactive decay, or the first law of thermodynamics? How familiar are you with units of measurement like the dyne, Btu, AU, amu, Joule, candela, or Weber? This book will test your science knowledge in a variety of ways, whether you wish to enjoy some science trivia, prepare for a science competition, see what you can learn by reading the answers and explanations, or simply see how much science you remember.

Synopsis Einstein For Dummies by : Carlos I. Calle

Genius demystified, the Dummies way! In 1905, Albert Einstein revolutionized modern physics with his theory of relativity. He went on to become a twentieth-century icon-a man whose name and face are synonymous with "genius." Now, at last, ordinary readers can explore Einstein's life and work in this new For Dummies guide. Physicist Carlos Calle chronicles Einstein's career and explains his work-including the theories of special and general relativity-in language that anyone can understand. He shows how Einstein's discoveries affected everything from the development of the atom bomb to the theory of quantum mechanics. He sheds light on Einstein's personal life and beliefs, including his views on religion and politics. And he shows how Einstein's work continues to affect our world today, from nuclear power to space travel to artificial intelligence.

Synopsis The Mathematical Structure of Classical and Relativistic Physics by : Enzo Tonti

The theories describing seemingly unrelated areas of physics have surprising analogies that have aroused the curiosity of scientists and motivated efforts to identify reasons for their existence. Comparative study of physical theories has revealed the presence of a common topological and geometric structure. The Mathematical Structure of Classical and Relativistic Physics is the first book to analyze this structure in depth, thereby exposing the relationship between (a) global physical variables and (b) space and time elements such as points, lines, surfaces, instants, and intervals. Combining this relationship with the inner and outer orientation of space and time allows one to construct a classification diagram for variables, equations, and other theoretical characteristics. The book is divided into three parts. The first introduces the framework for the above-mentioned classification, methodically developing a geometric and topological formulation applicable to all physical laws and properties; the second applies this formulation to a detailed study of particle dynamics, electromagnetism, deformable solids, fluid dynamics, heat conduction, and gravitation. The third part further analyses the general structure of the classification diagram for variables and equations of physical theories. Suitable for a diverse audience of physicists, engineers, and mathematicians, The Mathematical Structure of Classical and Relativistic Physics offers a valuable resource for studying the physical world. Written at a level accessible to graduate and advanced undergraduate students in mathematical physics, the book can be used as a research monograph across various areas of physics, engineering and mathematics, and as a supplemental text for a broad range of upper-level scientific coursework.
