The Cambridge Handbook of Physics Formulas comprehensively covers the major topics explored in undergraduate physics courses. It is designed to be a compact, portable, reference book suitable for everyday work, problem solving or exam revision.
numerical value of U/eV = (U/J)· (J/eV) and so on. 1 The metre is the length of the path travelled by light in vacuum during a time interval of 1/299792458 of a second. The kilogram is the unit of mass; it is equal to the mass of the international prototype of the kilogram.
useful formulas and equations found in undergraduate physics courses, covering mathematics, dynamics and mechanics, quantum physics, thermodynamics, solid state physics, electromag- netism, optics, and astrophysics.
3.1 Introduction. Unusually in physics, there is no pithy phrase that sums up the study of dynamics (the way in which forces produce motion), kinematics (the motion of matter), mechanics (the study of the forces and the motion they produce), and statics (the way forces combine to produce equilibrium).
4 Physics data booklet. Adding/subtracting quantities: uncertainty in result will be sum of uncertainties of quantities. Multiplying/dividing quantities: % uncertainties of quantities are added together to obtain % uncertainty in result. Powers of quantities: % uncertainty of quantity is multiplied by power to obtain % uncertainty in result.
