A collection of about 150 problems for first or second year undergraduate physics students. The solutions are sometimes worked out in detail, other times only hinted at with pertinent clues. Covering the electrodynamics of continuous media and fluid mechanics, the problems have been used for years by Vekstein in his classes at the Institute of Nuclear Physics, USSR Academy of Sciences, Novosibirsk. No bibliography. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
This textbook is based on lectures and tutorials given for several years at the Physics Department of Novosibirsk State University. It is constructed as a set of problems followed by detailed solutions and may act as a complementary text for standard courses on the physics of continuous media.
