Understanding Physics Optics & Modern Physics for IIT JEE 2012  (English, Paperback, Pandey D. C.)

Understanding Physics Optics & Modern Physics For IIT JEE is a guide that has been tailored for students who are preparing for the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) and covers the syllabus for Physics Optics and Modern Physics.

Summary Of The Book

In Understanding Physics Optics & Modern Physics For IIT JEE, the theory about the main topics is explained in sufficient detail along with figures, so that students can understand the subject well.

Before the mainconcepts are explained, the book provides examples so that the concept is comprehensively explained. An introductory test is included with each chapter to test the students’ ability. Solved examples are given at the end of each chapter in two levels. Level 1 solved examples are meant for the All India Engineering Entrance Examination (AIEEE) examination and Level 2 examples are for the JEE.

The two levels features questions of different types like Assertion and Reason, Single Correct Option, Attitude and Comprehension, and Match the Column Including Reasoning. Hints and solutions are given for each chapter, towards the end of the book.

The first chapter is on Reflection of Light and has explanations the nature of light and other general points on Geometrical Optics. The second chapter is about Refraction of Light and covers Thin Lenses, Total Internal Reflection, Refraction Through Prism, Optical Instruments, and Photometry. In the third chapter, the book covers Interference and Diffraction of Light, Energy Distribution in Interference, Conditions for Interference, Young’s Double Slit Experiment, Introduction to Diffraction, Diffraction from Narrow Slits, and Diffraction of X-Rays by Crystals. The further chapters deal with Modern Physics I and Modern Physics II.
