The goal of this book is to bridge the gap between physics and engineering by providing a deep understanding of physical principles and their engineering applications. The book covers classical mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, optics, and modern physics, with a focus on how these principles underpin various engineering disciplines. By integrating theoretical knowledge with practical problem-solving, it prepares students to tackle complex engineering challenges using a solid physics foundation.
