Force and Laws of motion Text Book

AI Thread Summary
To help a 9th grader grasp the concepts of force and the laws of motion, it's recommended to use engaging resources that blend theory with practical applications. "Conceptual Physics" by Paul Hewitt is suggested as a foundational text for understanding the theory behind these concepts. For hands-on learning, "101 Science Experiments" can provide practical experiments that reinforce the theoretical knowledge. Additionally, "Matter, Earth and Sky" by George Gamow is noted for its interesting approach to modern physics, although it may lack in numerical practice. For a book that offers good practice with force numericals, "Conceptual Physics" is a solid choice, although the specific ISBN code was not provided in the discussion.

What is the best way to make a 9th grader understand the concept of force and laws of motion. Also please refer a book where he can get a good practice to solve force numericals. Please mention the ISBN code of the book also. Thanks a lot

Matter, Earth and Sky, by George Gamow is interesting. I think I read this when I was in 8-9 grade. A little light on numerical stuff, but there is a lot of modern physics in there.
 
Hi,
One is learning about experiments: I guess for that 101 science experiments is good...
Other is learning the theory: for that a good starting point may be Conceptual Physics - Paul Hewitt
 

Thread '"WHAT IS A QUANTUM FIELD THEORY?" A First Introduction for Mathematicians'

The book is fascinating. If your education includes a typical math degree curriculum, with Lebesgue integration, functional analysis, etc, it teaches QFT with only a passing acquaintance of ordinary QM you would get at HS. However, I would read Lenny Susskind's book on QM first. Purchased a copy straight away, but it will not arrive until the end of December; however, Scribd has a PDF I am now studying. The first part introduces distribution theory (and other related concepts), which...

Thread 'Books with a more theoretical approach to turbulence and DNS'

I've gone through the Standard turbulence textbooks such as Pope's Turbulent Flows and Wilcox' Turbulent modelling for CFD which mostly Covers RANS and the closure models. I want to jump more into DNS but most of the work i've been able to come across is too "practical" and not much explanation of the theory behind it. I wonder if there is a book that takes a theoretical approach to Turbulence starting from the full Navier Stokes Equations and developing from there, instead of jumping from...
