Each volume focuses on a specific scientific discipline -- biology, chemistry, earth sciences and physics -- offering students an in-depth understanding of each discipline and its theories. Creating a sense of real-life relevance for students, the Science of Everyday Things expands on the explanations of scientific principles and concepts using a straightforward, step-by-step approach, and presents theories in their everyday applications. Some of the entries covered include: how osmosis is used in dehydrating fruit; how the principles of aerodynamics are applied to cars; Charles' law and the chemical reaction that sets off an airbag; how algorithms are used to figure out the NCAA playoff tournaments; and more. Each volume the Science of Everyday Things presents approximately 40-50 entries and includes photos, diagrams, sidebars containing short glossaries and interesting facts and details relating to each principle. 2011-08-30T02:44:07Z 2011-08-30T02:44:07Z 2004 Book 0-7876-5631-3 (set : hardcover) 0-7876-5632-1 (v. 1) 0-7876-5633-X (v. 2) 0-7876-5634-8 (v. 3) 0-7876-5635-6 (v. 4) http://scholar.dlu.edu.vn/thuvienso/handle/DLU123456789/25114 en application/pdf application/pdf application/pdf application/pdf The Gale Group, Inc |
