Features: This book is published in two volumes. The first volume covers Mechanics and Electromagnetism, while the second volume includes five parts: Thermodynamics, Vibrations and Waves, Wave Optics, Fundamentals of Quantum Mechanics, and Selected Topics in Physics for Modern Engineering Technology. The content of each part is selected based on the principle of "ensuring fundamentals, compressing classical theories, strengthening modern concepts, connecting with practical applications, and involving cutting-edge research," with a focus on highlighting physical ideas and methods. To meet the needs of teaching and learning, the book features carefully selected examples, exercises (with answers), and supplementary reading materials. The teaching requirements and guidance are provided in the companion book "University Physics Guide," while solutions to difficult problems and selected challenging exercises, along with mock exams, are included on the accompanying CD-ROM. This book can serve as a fundamental textbook for university physics courses in various engineering disciplines and is also suitable for faculty and students in non-engineering fields.
