This is the solutions manual for the Fluids, Waves and Optics textbook which was developed for the first-year calculus-based, introductory physics courses at the University of Alberta. This solutions manual contains the text of every end of chapter problem followed by a detailed, fully worked solution to each part of the problem.The questions and their solutions are grouped by the chapters in the Fluids, Waves and Optics textbook which are:Mathematics - Small angle approximations, complex numbers, complex exponentials, partial derivatives, experimental uncertainties.Elasticity - Stress, strain, moduli of elasticity, bulk stress, strain and modulusFluid Statics - pressure, Pascal's law, measuring pressures, Archimedes' principleFluid Dynamics - continuity equation, Bernoulli's equation, Torricelli's law, viscosity, Poiseuille's law, Stokes' lawSimple Oscillations - simple harmonic motion, mass-spring systems, simple and compound pendulumsDamped and Driven Oscillations - damped harmonic motion, damping ratio, driven oscillators, resonanceWaves - types of waves, mathematical description of a wave, waves on a string, acoustic waves, wave power and intensityWave Phenomena - principle of superposition, reflection at a boundary, interference, beats, standing waves, the relativistic and non-relativistic doppler effect, shock wavesOptics - laws of reflection and refraction, spherical mirrors, thin lensesOptical Instruments - lensmaker’s equation, compound microscope, simple telescope, spherical and chromatic aberrationsLight Waves - Huyghens' principle, dispersion, polarization, thin film interference, diffraction, diffraction gratingsIntroduction to Quantum Mechanics - atomic spectra, blackbody spectrum, photoelectric effect, Bohr atom, de Broglie wavelength, Schrodinger equation

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor
Roger Moore is a Professor of Physics at the University of Alberta. He is a member of the ATLAS experiment on the LHC at CERN, Geneva, Switzerland where is current research interests focus on Supersymmetry, a possible symmetry between force and matter, and searching for Dark Matter. Before joining ATLAS he was co-head of a major trigger subsystem of the DØ detector at Fermilab in Batavia, IL where he was also a member of the analysis group which discovered single top quark production. Prior to coming to Canada, Dr Moore was a research associate at Michigan State University and a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Cambridge, where he also earned his PhD.
