Engineering Physics (PTU, Jalandhar) by Anupam Deep Sharma, Narinder Kumar

This book though aimed at the first year engineering course of Punjab Technical University, Jalandhar is useful for the engineering students of all other universities. The book presents an illuminative and objective exploration of applications of principles of physics in engineering. The authors discuss all the concepts pertaining to engineering physics such as EM waves and dielectrics, magnetic materials and superconductivity, elements of crystallography, laser, fibre optics, special theory of relativity, quantum theory, and nanotechnology with the help of diagrams, derivation of formulae, solved and unsolved examples. This volume also examines the detail of a large number of physical principles with their proofs and practical applications.
Written in a student-friendly manner the book is enriched with the following features:

• All the principles have been proved with the help of derivation of their formulae and their practical applications
• Straight forward approach to illustrate the concepts of engineering physics
• Detail theory of nanotechnology
• Solved examples with a variety of solution so that students may be acquainted with the problem areas
• At the end of each chapter, review questions and topic wise previous years' questions
• At the end of book, Examination Papers of PTU since 2004.
• The book is mainly aimed for the First Year Engineering students of Punjab Technical University and all its affiliated colleges. The text of the book is organized in such a way that all undergraduate engineering students of various other universities may also be benefitted.
