Only a basic understanding of classical lagrangian mechanics is assumed; beyond that, the reader should find the material to be self-contained.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe mechanics problem of a point mass constrained to move without friction on a two-dimensional surface of arbitrary shape serves as a paradigm for the development of the mathematics and physics of general relativity. Special relativity is reviewed. The basic principles of general relativity are then presented, and the most important applications are discussed. The final special topics section takes the reader up to a few areas of current research. An extensive set of accessible problems enhances and extends the coverage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs a learning and teaching tool, this current book provides solutions to those problems. This text and solutions manual are meant to provide an \u003cem\u003eintroduction\u003c\/em\u003e to the subject. It is hoped that these books will allow the reader to approach the more advanced texts and monographs, as well as the continual influx of fascinating new experimental results, with a deeper understanding and sense of appreciation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 216\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.46 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 08, 2017\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45883952496837,"sku":"9789813227699","price":77.76,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/6718\/5605\/files\/QXlJUzkvam9INmJLU0MrZUgvTlNEZz09_482abfc2-03c5-4849-90dd-9c9f7444a3c8.webp?v=1771823653","url":"https:\/\/selloorium.com\/products\/introduction-to-general-relativity-solutions-to-problems-paperback-2","provider":"Selloorium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
