Ebook: Physics

The most important and crucial stage of school education is the
higher secondary level. This is the transition level from a generalised
curriculum to a discipline-based curriculum.
In order to pursue their career in basic sciences and professional
courses, students take up Physics as one of the subjects. To provide
them sufficient background to meet the challenges of academic and
professional streams, the Physics textbook for Std. XI has been reformed,
updated and designed to include basic information on all topics.
Each chapter starts with an introduction, followed by subject matter.
All the topics are presented with clear and concise treatments. The
chapters end with solved problems and self evaluation questions.
Understanding the concepts is more important than memorising.
Hence it is intended to make the students understand the subject
thoroughly so that they can put forth their ideas clearly. In order to
make the learning of Physics more interesting, application of concepts
in real life situations are presented in this book.
Due importance has been given to develop in the students,
experimental and observation skills. Their learning experience would
make them to appreciate the role of Physics towards the improvement
of our society.

The following are the salient features of the text book:
- The data has been systematically updated.
- Figures are neatly presented.
- Self-evaluation questions (only samples) are included to sharpen
the reasoning ability of the student.
- As Physics cannot be understood without the basic knowledge
of Mathematics, few basic ideas and formulae in Mathematics
are given.
