Excerpt from Advanced Examples in PhysicsDegree courses in Physics at Leeds University in setting numerical examples of a fairly advanced type, and I doubt not that the. Same difficulty will have been felt elsewhere. N 0 teacher can afford to dispense with so important a test of the progress of his students as the working of calculations 'based on the subject-matter of the lectures, yet there appears to be no collection of suitable exercises published at a moderate price. The dictation of questions to a class absorbs valuable time, and the handing round of loose lea¿ets is a troublesome process. Moreover the large number of students working privately for the examinations of London University must find themselves at a great disadvantage if, as often happens, they have not easy access to a set of University Calendars. This book is designed to meet the difficulty referred to, most of the questions are taken from old examination-papers, the source being acknowledged by a letter in brackets at the end of each exercise. The London and Victoria Universities are indicated by the letters L. And V. Respectively, H. Denotes that the paper was one for Honours candidates. When no letter is added, the question is either original or has been taken from the lecture note-books in use at Leeds, for permission to use the latter I am greatly indebted to Professor Stroud. Questions taken from old papers have as a rule been reproduced in their original form even when improvement seemed possible, the detection of such cases is in itself a useful exercise.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
