Physics. From theory to practice. Pocket reference. In 2 books. Book 1: Mechanics. Optics. Thermodynamics

In the popular reference book Physics. From theory to practice ”(the translation of the British reference book“ Newnes Engineering Science ”, which has withstood three editions), is presented methods, formulas, diagrams and reference data of the main sections of physics.
For the convenience of readers in the Russian version, the reference book is published in two books. The first contains information on mechanics (with elements of the resistance of materials, parts of machines and mechanisms), optics, thermo- and hydrodynamics. The second is devoted to electricity and magnetism (with elements of electrical engineering, electronics and radio engineering) The reference book is unique, its characteristic feature is an infrequent combination of theoretical provisions in domestic literature with their practical application. A large place in the directory is described by all kinds of devices designed to measure temperature, pressure of liquids and gases, solidness of materials, speed and volume of moving liquids and gases, etc.
The reference book is intended for a wide range of readers - students, students of technical colleges, engineers and all those interested in technology. It is especially useful for practices who want to increase the level of theoretical knowledge, also, if necessary, to refresh their scientific baggage and recall the half -forgotten formulas
