About this ebook
"Physics is all around us. It is in the electric light you turn on in the morning; the car you drive to work; your wristwatch, cell phone, CD player, radio, and that big plasma TV set you got for Christmas. It makes the stars shine every night and the sun shine every day, and it makes a baseball soar into the stands for a home run.
Physics is the science of matter, energy, space, and time. It explains ordinary matter as combinations of a dozen fundamental particles (quarks and leptons), interacting through four fundamental forces. It describes the many forms of energy—such as kinetic energy, electrical energy, and mass—and the way energy can change from one form to another. It describes a malleable space-time and the way objects move through space and time.
There are many fields of physics, for example: mechanics, electricity, heat, sound, light, condensed matter, atomic physics, nuclear physics, and elementary particle physics. Physics is the foundation of all the physical sciences—such as chemistry, material science, and geology—and is important for many other fields of human endeavor: biology, medicine, computing, ice hockey, television... the list goes on and on.
So also Mechanics is an important field of physics. Developed by Sir Isaac Newton in the 17th century, the laws of mechanics and the law of gravity successfully explained the orbits of the moon around the earth and the planets around the sun. This study teaches simple physics principles to the college-level students and other people interest in daily-life physics.."

Murat UHRAYOGLU (UKRAY), isimli yazar & yayıncı, aslen UKRAYNA göçmeni olan İstanbullu bir ailenin tek çocuğu olarak 17 Agustos 1976 tarihinde İSTANBUL'da doğdu. İlk, Orta ve Lise öğrenimini istanbul'da tamamladı. Bakırköy Anadolu Ticaret Lisesi'ni başarıyla bitirdikten sonra, YILDIZ TEKNİK üniversitesi ELEKTRONİK Mühendisliği Bölümünde 1995-2000 yılları arasında eğitim gördü ve 2000 yılında mezun oldu ve aynı Üniversitenin FEN BİLİMLERİ Enstitüsünde 2002-2004 yılları arasında Yüksek Lisans öğrenimi gördü, burada ileri teknolojik araştırmalara ve bilimsel çalışmalara katıldı. Daha sonraki yıllarda ise, AMERİKA'daki GÜNEY CALİFORNİYA ÜNİVERSİTESİ (University of Southern California)'da ileri araştırmalar enstitüsünde Bulanık Cebir (Fuzzy Lojik) yapay zeka temelli elektronik devre sistemleri ve Kaotik zaman serilerinin zaman domeni incelemeleri konusu ile Einstein'ın Birleşik Alan Kuramı üzerinde çalışmalar yaptı. Bu çalışmalarının önemli sonuçlarını Akademik makaleler ve Kitap olarak da 2007-2010 yılları arasında yine Amerikada tanıştığı POD (Print on Demand) sistemiyle yayınladığı gibi, bu yayıncılık sistemini 2011 yılından itibaren Türkiyeye getirmek ve modifiye etmek için, 2006 yılından beri yazdığı diğer eserlerle birlikte KLASİK yayıncılıkla eserlerini yayınevlerinde yayınlamak yerine, alternatif olacak bir yayıncılık sistemi şeklinde web yayıncılığının temellerini ilk kez atarak, web çalışmalarına da başlamış ve böylelikle ilk kez dijital ve basılı ortamda kitap yayıncılık hayatına da Türkiye'de başlamış oldu. 2011 yılına gelindiğinde ise, "İnternette e-kitap yayıncılığı ilkeleri" ve "5-Boyutlu Relativite & Birleşik Alan Kuramı & Quantum Mekaniği"nin birleştirilmesi üzerine iki makale yayımladı. Bu makaleleri büyük ses getirdi ve çoğu kişi web yayıncılığına yöneldi. İkinci makalesindeki fikirlerini, temel Fizik yasalarını en küçük ölçeklerde birleştirmeye çalışan ve halen üzerinde çalışılan "Birleşik Alan Teorisi" isimli eserini 2007 yılında yazmaya başladı. 2000'li yıllardan bu yana, çeşitli yerli ve yabancı kaynaklardan araştırmalar yaparak, Akademik, Web yayıncılığı ve Bilimsel konularda çeşitli Makaleler, Projeler yürütmüş olup, yine çoğu dini araştırmalar olmak üzere, çeşitli Grafik Tasarımları ile Kitap kapakları hazırladı. Bu yüzden, yurtdışında profesyonel yayıncılık için kendine editoryal ve grafik sanatları olarak iki yönlü geliştirerek kuvvetli bir alt yapı hazırladı. Aralarında, 2006 yılında kaleme aldığı ilk eseri KIYAMET GERÇEKLİĞİ ve 2007 yılında kaleme aldığı "5-BOYUTLU RELATİVİTE & BİRLEŞİK ALAN TEORİSİ", 2008 yılında kaleme aldığı "İSEVİLİK İŞARETLERİ" ile diğer eserleri olan "YARATILIŞ GERÇEKLİĞİ" (2009), ve yine Mevlanayla ilgili "MESNEVİYYE-İ UHREVİYYE" (2010) (AŞK-I MESNEVİ) ve "ZAMANIN SAHİPLERİ" (2011) isimli otobiyografik roman olmak üzere yayımlanmış toplam 7 türkce kitabı ile çoğu FİZİK ve METAFİZİK konularında olmak üzere, ingilizce olarak yayınlanmış toplam 5 kitap olma üzere tamamı 12 yayımlanmış eseri vardır..

What is Physics?
Physics is all around us. It is in the electric light you turn on in the morning; the car you drive to work; your wristwatch, cell phone, CD player, radio, and that big plasma TV set you got for Christmas. It makes the stars shine every night and the sun shine every day, and it makes a baseball soar into the stands for a home run.

It explains ordinary matter as combinations of a dozen fundamental particles (quarks and leptons), interacting through four fundamental forces. It describes the many forms of energy—such as kinetic energy, electrical energy, and mass—and the way energy can change from one form to another. It describes a malleable space-time and the way objects move through space and time.
There are many fields of physics, for example: mechanics, electricity, heat, sound, light, condensed matter, atomic physics, nuclear physics, and elementary particle physics. Physics is the foundation of all the physical sciences—such as chemistry, material science, and geology—and is important for many other fields of human endeavor: biology, medicine, computing, ice hockey, television… the list goes on and on.
A physicist is not some geek in a long white coat, working on some weird experiment. Physicists look and act like you or me. They work for research laboratories, universities, private companies, and government agencies. They teach, do research, and develop new technologies. They do experiments on mountaintops, in mines, and in earth orbit. They go to movies and play softball. Physicists are good at solving problems—all kinds of problems, from esoteric to mundane. How does a mirror reflect light? What holds an atom together? How fast does a rocket have to go to escape from earth? How can a worldwide team share data in real time? (Solving this last problem led physicists to invent the World Wide Web.)
Mechanics is an important field of physics. Developed by Sir Isaac Newton in the 17th century, the laws of mechanics and the law of gravity successfully explained the orbits of the moon around the earth and the planets around the sun. They are valid over a large range of distances: from much less than the height of an apple tree to much more than the distance from the earth to the moon or the sun. Newton’s laws are used to design cars, clocks, airplanes, earth satellites, bridges, buildings—just about everything, it seems, except electronics.
Electricity is another example of physics, one that you may experience as a spark when you touch a doorknob on a dry winter day. The electrical attraction of protons and electrons is the basis for chemistry. Magnetism is another force of nature, familiar to us from refrigerator magnets and compasses. In the 19th century, James Clerk Maxwell combined electricity and magnetism. He showed that light is an electromagnetic wave that travels through empty space. (Waves had always required a medium, for example, water is the medium for ocean waves.) Other electromagnetic waves besides light also travel through empty space; hence radio signals can reach us from a Mars explorer.
Maxwell’s theory also showed that electromagnetic waves travel with the same speed (the speed of light), even if the person who sees it is moving. This is in conflict with Isaac Newton’s principle of relativity, which said a train’s headlight beam would have one speed as seen by the engineer and a different speed as seen by a person watching the train go by. Newton and Maxwell could not both be right about this matter, and in 1905, Albert Einstein resolved the conflict by allowing space and time to change, depending on motion. His special theory of relativity predicted that an object passing by would look shorter and a passing clock would run slower. These changes are too small to notice unless the object is moving very fast—Newton’s laws work just fine at the speeds of ordinary moving objects. But space really does shrink and time really does expand for particles moving at speeds near the speed of light (300,000 kilometers per second).
Another remarkable consequence of special relativity is the famous equation E=mc², which says that mass is just another form of energy. This equivalence of mass and energy is the source of the energy that comes to earth as sunlight. In the intense heat at the core of the sun, four hydrogen nuclei fuse into one helium nucleus and the mass difference is converted into radiant energy, which emerges as sunlight. E=mc2 is also responsible for the release of energy from fission of uranium in a nuclear reactor, and this energy is used around the world to make large amounts of electric power.
Einstein went on to replace Newton’s theory of gravity with his general theory of relativity, which says that space and time are changed not only by speed, but also by the presence of matter. Imagine space-time as a large sheet of rubber, and set a bowling ball on the sheet; it will be dimpled near the ball. A tennis ball rolled slowly near the bowling ball will curve around it and may settle into an orbit, just as the earth orbits the sun. Today, the general theory of relativity is well-tested and is used to accurately determine the location of your car if you have a GPS (Global Positioning System) device.
Newton’s laws also break down on the tiny distance scales of atoms and molecules, and must be replaced by the theory of quantum mechanics. For example, quantum mechanics describes how electrons can only travel around the nucleus of an atom in orbits with certain specific energies. When an electron jumps from one of these orbits to another, the atom will absorb or emit energy in discrete bundles of electromagnetic radiation. Because the energies of different states of an atom are known with high precision, we can create highly accurate devices such as atomic clocks and lasers.
Quantum mechanics is also necessary to understand how electrons flow through solids. Materials that normally do not conduct electric current can be made to conduct when doped
with atoms of a particular element. This is how we make transistors, microscopic electrical on-off switches, which are the basis of your cell phone, your iPod, your PC, and all the modern electronics that has transformed our lives and our economy.
There are still profound questions in physics today: what are the mysterious dark matter and energy that make up most of the universe? Are there more than three dimensions of space? The more we learn about physics, the more it will help us every day, and the better we will understand our place in the universe.
Use of physics in our daily life?
Following of our actions in our daily life are parts of physics study. When we walk or run, our motion is part of laws of mechanics and thermodynamics.
1- We eat food which undergoes chemical reactions producing heat energy which is converted into mechanical energy,
2-Use of refrigerator, pressure cookers, washing machines, television, music system, computers, etc. are all designed on the principles of physics,
3-When we speak, we produce sound properties of which like pitch and intensity are studied in physics,
4-Electricity that we use in household is a gift of physics,
5- Automobiles design is based on physics..
The list is endless. So had there been no study of the science of
