Energy de Roger Hinrichs

Energy

Autor Roger Hinrichs, Merlin Kleinbach, Rachel Wade
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 6 apr 2023
In our society, we must make decisions about the production and use of energy and the consequences of that production and use, whether we are buying a car, voting for ballot measures or building a house. Our governments, the media and corporations discuss policies regarding climate change, radioactive waste and environmental regulation. Hinrichs/Wade's ENERGY: ITS USE AND THE ENVIRONMENT, 6th Edition, provides you with the science foundation to participate in these discussions and to make informed decisions, emphasizing the physical principles behind energy and its effects on our environment. In this text you will learn the basic physical principles behind the use of energy, including the study of mechanics, electricity and magnetism, thermodynamics, and atomic and nuclear physics. By placing energy issues within the context of everyday examples and asking you to define and support critical arguments, this text will offer a provocative approach to this crucial field.

Notă biografică

Roger Hinrichs is presently a professor emeritus of physics at SUNY-Oswego. At SUNY-Oswego he was previously a professor of physics and department chair, and he taught energy-related courses for over 25 years. His training is in experimental nuclear physics, and his research involves studies of trace materials in environmental and biological samples using PIXE with Oswego's Van de Graaff particle accelerator. He has an interest in energy use in developing countries, and spent time in Kenya and India, as well as one year as a Fulbright Scholar in the sultanate of Oman. Additionally, he spent four years as a visiting professor at the Weill Cornell Medical College in Qatar. He co-directed the Institute in Energy Education, a program for secondary school science and technology teachers. In its 20 years, this program has impacted over 500,000 students and has won numerous awards. Dr. Hinrichs also supports active inquiry-based learning in the classroom; some of the activities in this text come from his course, "Physics for Elementary Education Majors." He has worked as a consultant at local, state and national levels on matters of energy policy and energy technologies.
