The book presents a comprehensive study of Waves and Oscillations in different fields of physics. It explains the basic concepts of waves and oscillations through the method of solving problems. Each chapter begins with the short and clear description of the basic concepts and principles. This is followed by a large number of solved problems of different types. The proofs of relevant theorems and derivations of basic equations and formulae are included among the solved problems. A large number of supplementary problems at the end of each chapter serve as a complete review of the theory.
The topics discussed include simple harmonic motion, superposition principle and coupled oscillations, damped harmonic oscillations, forced vibrations and resonance, waves, superposition of waves, Fourier analysis, vibrations of strings and membranes, Doppler effect, acoustics of buildings, electromagnetic waves, interference and diffraction. There are more than 370 solved problems and around 380 supplementary problems with answers.
This book will be of great help not only to B.Sc.(Honours and Pass) students of physics but also to those preparing for various competitive examinations. ISBN - 9788122426793
