Understanding Physics JEE main and advanced waves and thermodynamics deals with the waves and the wave motion and the concepts of the thermodynamics in an effective and easily understandable way. the subject of waves is of fundamental importance in engineering and technology. Similarly the deep understanding of the thermodynamic processes is crucial to much of modern physics, chemistry and engineering, starting with elementary description of waves, the book takes up the superposition of waves and the sound waves. in the thermodynamics section, the book provides the introduction to the main principles that are the foundations to our understanding of thermal phenomena viz., thermometry, thermal expansion, kinetic theory of gases, the first law of thermodynamics, the calorimetry, and the heat transfer. without deviating to superficialities, the book focuses on the concept building and the application of the concepts in solving the varied physics problems. the exposition of the subject matter is simple and leads completely to the direct means of the solving problems in physics where the application of the concepts from mechanics is essentially required. a must have book for anyone desiring to be firm-footed in concepts of physics as well as their applications in problem solving.
