What is Mechanics and Thermodynamics (Undergraduate Lecture Notes in Physics) about?
"A Self-contained Textbook for either Self-Directed Study or Lecturer-Led Courses Preface The present textbook represents the first part of a four-volume series on experimental Physics. It covers the field ofMechanics and Thermodynamics. One of its goal is to illustrate, that the explanation of our world and of all natural processes by Physics is always the description of models of our world, which are formulated by theory and proved by experiments. The continuous improvement of these models leads to a more detailled understanding of our world and of the processes that proceed in it. The representation of this textbook starts with an introductory chapter giving a brief survey of the history and development of Physics and its present relevance for other sciences and for technology. Since experimental physics is based on measuring techniques and quantitative results, a section discusses basic units, techniques for their measurements and the accuracy and possible errors of measurements. In all further chapters the description of the real world by successively refined models is outlined. It begins with the model of a point mass, its motion under the action of forces and its limitations
