How to Fall Slower Than Gravity: And Other Everyday (and Not So Everyday) Uses of Mathematics and Physical Reasoning
by Nahin, Paul J.
|
|
In this collection of twenty-six intriguing problems, Paul Nahin shows how mathematics -- including algebra, trigonometry, geometry, and calculus -- can be united with physical laws to solve both real and theoretical problems. The problems range from ancient catapult conundrums to the mathematics of dodging trucks to the reasons that raindrops fall slower than the rate of gravity. | |
