Reseña del libro "PHYSICS - The Science of Common Sense SECOND EDITION (en Inglés)"
A thorough understanding of physics is one of the cornerstones of a scientific education-but it is often hindered by the density of the subject matter. In a series of informative physics papers, Prof. Jacob V. Kainnady offers an accessible-and at times, controversial-assessment of complex physical phenomena.Beginning with a short paper titled "Product Law," Kainnady's insightful papers go on to render physics equations as commonsense equivalencies, providing readers with deeper insights into basic physics. From there, Kainnady delves into some of the most intriguing topics in physics, including a sensible analysis of gravitational and electrostatic forces, the sharing of masses between nucleons, and the questions surrounding nuclear-mass defect. He then addresses the discrepancies between classical and quantum physics through a consideration of discontinuous half waves. Kainnady shows that all accelerating particles radiate energy. He performs a critical analysis of Newton's laws of motion. While explaining the origination of light with the same speed, Kainnady indicates the extremely high temperature inside elementary particles. A couple of topics he added in this second edition are derivation of Newton's second law of motion from Newton's first law of motion and conversion constant of measured physical values to their effective values in a physical equation.Prof. Kainnady's approach to physical observations in this book is the following. He draws the reader's attention to various physical observations and walks them through his in-depth analysis. He proceeds to raise thought-provoking questions, some never asked, and some never answered. Then he provides his own sensible answers. In some cases, the answers are based on existing laws; in others, the answers lead to new logical predictions. Despite the intricacies of his topics, Kainnady makes his physical discussions intelligible to anyone used to making commonsense observations-in many cases, no background in physics required!In this book, Prof. Kainnady raises thoughtful questions about the method in which some physical principles are discovered and accepted for centuries. He also makes logical, sometimes revolutionary, predictions that may add new chapters to physical science. Kainnady's new findings and observations have the potential to generate lively and productive debate in established academia, while providing an informative introduction to all those hoping to expand their understanding of basic-and not so basic-physics.
