Archimedes Principle and the Law of Floatation - Paperback

by Joseph Ugwuanyi (Author), Ambrose Eze (Author), Ernest Obetta (Author)

Archimedes principle and the Law of floatation both form the bedrock of understanding the interactions between a solid and a fluid in which it is immersed. These principles are among the most important in fundamental classical mechanics. We understand it is very important for fresh science students to grasp the concepts and ideas put forward in these principles, and so we have taken time to present them in very lucid and concise manner. We urge students to be relaxed as they read through this book because the authors have presented the ideas in very appealing and interesting manner with focus on understanding, rather than just another science book. There are lots of problems used as examples to illustrate the concepts, and many more exercises for students to try on their own.
