Soft cover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. Using a clear, step-by-step approach, this book explains one of the more difficultyet crucialtopics in physics. Understanding tensors is essential for any physics student dealing with phenomena where causes and effects have different directions. A horizontal electric field producing verti…cal polarization in dielectrics; an unbalanced car wheel wobbling in the vertical plane while spinning about a horizontal axis; an electrostatic field on Earth observed to be a magnetic field by orbiting astronautsthese are some situations where physicists employ tensors. But the true beauty of tensors lies in this fact: When coordinates are transformed from one system to another, tensors change according to the same rules as the coordinates. Tensors, therefore, allow for the convenience of coordinates while also transcending them. This makes tensors the gold standard for expressing physical relationships in physics and geometry. Undergraduate physics majors are typically introduced to tensors in special-case applications. For example, in a classical mechanics course, they meet the "inertia tensor," and in electricity and magnetism, they encounter the "polarization tensor." However, this piecemeal approach can set students up for misconceptions when they have to learn about tensors in more advanced physics and mathematics studies (e.g., while enrolled in a graduate-level general relativity course or when studying non-Euclidean geometries in a higher mathematics class). Dwight E. Neuenschwander's Tensor Calculus for Physics is a bottom-up approach that emphasizes motivations before providing definitions. Using a clear, step-by-step approach, the book strives to embed the logic of tensors in contexts that demonstrate why that logic is worth pursuing. It is an ideal companion for courses such as mathematical methods of physics, classical mechanics, electricity and magnetism, and relativity.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - An essential guide to understanding tensors through physics.Understanding tensors is essential for physics students who encounter phenomena where direction matters. A jet stream rushing overhead can trigger vertical convection that leads to thunderstorms. An unbalanced car wheel spinning ar…ound a horizontal axis produces a wobble in the vertical plane. Astronauts orbiting Earth observe an electrostatic field as a magnetic one. In all these cases, tensors offer a language that captures directional relationships with precision. In the second edition of Tensor Calculus for Physics, Dwight E. Neuenschwander provides an accessible guide that shows how tensor logic arises naturally from physical problems.Tensors' true elegance lies in how they transform: when coordinates change from one system to another, tensors follow the same rules, allowing physical laws to retain their form across perspectives. Students are often introduced to tensors piecemeal through the inertia tensor in classical mechanics or the polarization tensor in electricity and magnetism. While useful, this fragmented approach does not prepare the student for tensor features such as affine connections, dual basis vectors, and covariant derivatives they will encounter in advanced studies such as general relativity, continuum mechanics, or non-Euclidean geometry. This concise guide builds from the ground up, providing a clear, step-by-step progression that embeds tensors in contexts where their power becomes self-evident.This extensively revised second edition incorporates more illustrative examples and carefully designed homework problems to strengthen understanding. Now accompanied by a solutions manual, this edition is an ideal resource for courses in general relativity, covariant electrodynamics, continuum mechanics, fluid dynamics, materials science, and any discipline where tensors illuminate the structure of physical reality.
