Beschreibung: | Includes bibliographical references and index Three examples of the mutual embrace -- Measuring gravity -- Feynman's infinite circuit -- Air drag--a mathematical view -- Air drag--a physical view -- Really long falls -- The Zeta function--the physics -- Ballistics--with no air drag (yet) -- Ballistics--with air drag -- Gravity and Newton -- Gravity far above the earth -- Gravity inside the earth -- Quilts & electricity -- Random walks -- Two more random walks -- Nearest neighbors -- One last random walk -- The big noise -- Electricity in the fourth dimension In a series of brief and largely self-contained chapters, Nahin discusses a wide range of topics in which math and physics are mutually dependent and mutually illuminating, from Newtonian gravity and Newton's laws of mechanics to ballistics, air drag, and electricity. The mathematical subjects range from algebra, trigonometry, geometry, and calculus to differential equations, Fourier series, and theoretical and Monte Carlo probability. --from publisher description |
