The authors use diagrams, sketches, and graphs coupled with equations and mathematical analysis to enhance the reader s understanding of modern devices. Readers will learn to identify common underlying physical principles that govern several types of devices, while gaining an understanding of the performance trade-off imposed by the physical limitations of various processing methods. The topics discussed in the book assume readers have taken an introductory physics course, college algebra, and have a basic understanding of calculus. Describes the basic physics behind a large number of devices encountered in everyday life, from the air conditioner to Blu-ray discs Covers state-of-the-art devices such as spectrographs, photoelectric image sensors, spacecraft systems, astronomical and planetary observatories, biomedical imaging instruments, particle accelerators, and jet engines Includes access to a book companion site that houses Power Point slides Modern Devices: The Simple Physics of Sophisticated Technology is designed as a reference for professionals that would like to gain a basic understanding of the operation of complex technologies. The book is also suitable as a textbook for upper-level undergraduate non-major students interested in physics.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53876554596631,"sku":null,"price":15438.45,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/6918\/8119\/files\/1605035.webp?v=1784065903","url":"https:\/\/payment.letskitaboo.com\/te\/products\/modern-devices-9781119011828","provider":"Kitaboo One eStore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
