Doug West
Have you ever wondered how the world around you works—from the morning cup of coffee to the colors of a rainbow? This book reveals the hidden science behind it all! "Everyday Physics: Uncovering the Science in the Simple Things" is your perfect solution to understanding physics in an engaging, concise way. Here's what you'll discover:
Discover the science behind your morning coffee: Learn how heat transfer works through conduction, convection, and radiation, and uncover simple tips to keep your favorite brew warm longer.
Explore motion and mechanics in everyday life: Understand how Newton's laws of motion shape actions as simple as pushing a shopping cart or riding a bicycle—and how these same principles power rockets and roller coasters.
Unravel the mysteries of friction: Find out why friction is both a challenge and a lifesaver, helping you walk, drive, and keep your world grounded while posing unique engineering challenges.
Learn how fluids shape our world: From the aerodynamics of airplane wings to the simple act of drinking through a straw, discover how the principles of fluid motion influence technology and nature.
See the world in a new light—literally: Delve into the wonders of light, from rainbows to reflections, and find out how your eyes and cameras transform light waves into stunning visuals.
Unlock the secrets of sound: Learn how sound waves travel through air, water, and solids to create music, communication, and the everyday hum of life.
Understand the invisible force of electricity: From static shocks to powering your smartphone, discover how electricity flows and fuels the modern world—and what happens when lightning strikes!
Grasp the power of gravity: Explore how gravity keeps you grounded, shapes the universe, and plays a vital role in everything from tides to the orbits of planets and stars.
Demystify randomness in life and the cosmos: See how probability shapes games of chance, weather forecasts, evolution, and even the formation of galaxies—revealing surprising order in apparent chaos.
Experience the wonder of physics in everyday life: This book transforms the ordinary into the extraordinary, showing how simple actions like sipping coffee or driving a car are deeply connected to the fundamental laws of the universe.
