The Pearson Guide to Objective Physics for the IIT-JEE 2011

0.0

The last IIT-JEE saw the introduction of a new pattern that comprised questions from different categories like questions that have more than one correct answer, and questions based on passages. This text offers complete coverage of this pattern as well as the entire syllabus of the IIT-JEE over eight sections—mechanics, simple harmonic motion and waves, heat and thermodynamics, electrostatics, electricity, optics, modern physics and model test papers. Features Brief review at the beginning of each chapter that discusses concepts and definitions to enable students to easily grasp the subject matter Short cuts, cautions and points to note for each chapter More than 5,000 solved problems, including typical problems based on passages Covers all five categories of questions asked in the examination Question that feature more than one correct answer One-correct-answer questions Over 200 match-the-following questions. Subjective questions that have numerical answers Questions based on passages More than 4,000 questions for practice, with answers and hints Questions based on assertion-reasoning More than 250 passages, and questions based on them Table Of Contents Section I: Mechanics Units, Dimensions and Errors Vectors Motion in One and Two Dimensions Circular Motion Newton’s Law of Motion Work, Power and Energy Conservation of Momentum Centre of Mass and Rigid Body Dynamics Gravitation Inter atomic Forces and Elasticity Hydrodynamicsand Properties of Fluids Section II: Simple Harmonic Motion and Waves Simple Harmonic Motion Wave Motion and Wave in a String Sound Waves Section III: Heat and Thermodynamics Kinetic Theory of Gases, Calorimetry and Specific Heat of Gases Thermodynamics Heat Transfer Processes Section IV: Electrostatics Electrostatics Gauss’s Law Capacitors Section V: Electricity Electricity Thermal and Chemical Effect of Current Magnetic Effects of Current Permanent Magnets Electromagnetic Induction Alternating Current Electromagnetic Waves Section VI: Optics Ray Optics and Optical Instruments Wave Optics Spectrum of Light and Photometry Photoelectric Effect and Dual Nature of Matter Section VII: Modern Physics Bohr’s Theory and Atomic Physics X-Rays Nuclear Physics
