Features: The complete tutorial includes "Mechanics," "Thermodynamics," "Electromagnetism," and "Optics.Modern Physics." In "Optics.Modern Physics," optics covers four chapters: Introduction, Interference, Diffraction, and Polarization, while modern physics includes five chapters: Relativity, Fundamentals of Quantum Physics, Atoms and Molecules, Atomic Nuclei, and Particles and the Universe. Optics primarily focuses on wave optics content. In addition to presenting traditional topics in a concise manner, it introduces new perspectives for addressing interference and diffraction problems, as well as the novel physical implications and innovative applications developed from these approaches. Modern physics primarily deals with physics based on relativity and quantum theory, encompassing a series of important and pioneering physical concepts. This book guides readers from the development of physics, where traditional classical physics encountered insurmountable difficulties, to the inevitability of relativity and quantum theory. Building on this foundation, it provides a concise yet thorough explanation of fundamental physical concepts, laws, and problem-solving methods, offering a glimpse into the flourishing progress of modern physics. The book is well-structured, succinctly explained, and written in a clear and fluent style. It covers a broad range of knowledge and is roughly equivalent to a 40-hour lecture course, making it suitable for use in science, engineering, agriculture, medicine, and teacher training institutions.
