SMPHYSICS 

Part I

📏 Chapter 1: Units and Measurements

Covers international systems of units (SI), base and derived quantities, dimensional analysis, and error calculation. Focuses on checking equations for dimensional consistency, deriving relationships between physical quantities, and applying significant figures.

🏎️ Chapter 2: Motion in a Straight Line

Introduces kinematics in one dimension. Focuses on position, displacement, speed, velocity, instantaneous rates of change using calculus, uniform acceleration, kinematic equations of motion, and graphical representations (x-t and v-t graphs).

🏹 Chapter 3: Motion in a Plane

Extends kinematics to two dimensions using vectors. Covers vector addition, resolution into rectangular components, scalar and vector products, projectile motion (trajectory, maximum height, time of flight, horizontal range), and uniform circular motion (centripetal acceleration).

⚙️ Chapter 4: Laws of Motion

Establishes classical dynamics via Newton’s three laws of motion, inertia, linear momentum, and impulse. Covers the law of conservation of linear momentum, free-body diagrams, static and kinetic friction, laws of friction, and banking of curved roads.

⚡ Chapter 5: Work, Energy, and Power

Explores the scalar nature of work, kinetic and potential energy, and the Work-Energy Theorem. Focuses on conservative vs. non-conservative forces, potential energy stored in a spring, conservation of mechanical energy, power, and elastic/inelastic collisions in one and two dimensions.

🔄 Chapter 6: System of Particles and Rotational Motion

Deals with extended bodies and rigid-body dynamics. Key concepts include center of mass and its motion, torque, angular momentum, conservation of angular momentum, moment of inertia, radius of gyration, and rotational kinematic equations.

🌌 Chapter 7: Gravitation

Covers Newton's Universal Law of Gravitation and Kepler’s laws of planetary motion. Analyzes variations in acceleration due to gravity ($g$) with altitude and depth, gravitational potential energy, escape speed, orbital velocity, and energy of orbiting satellites.

Part II

🧱 Chapter 8: Mechanical Properties of Solids

Introduces elasticity and deformation under external deforming forces. Key topics include stress, strain, Hooke’s law, stress-strain curves, elastic moduli (Young’s, Bulk, and Shear Modulus), and elastic potential energy.

💧 Chapter 9: Mechanical Properties of Fluids

Focuses on hydrostatic and hydrodynamic principles. Covers fluid pressure, Pascal’s law, Archimedes' principle, streamline and turbulent flow, equation of continuity, Bernoulli’s theorem and its applications, viscosity, Stokes’ law, terminal velocity, and surface tension.

🌡️ Chapter 10: Thermal Properties of Matter

Covers heat, temperature, thermal expansion of solids, liquids, and gases, specific heat capacity, and calorimetry. Details latent heat, phase changes, modes of heat transfer (conduction, convection, radiation), and Newton's law of cooling.

♨️ Chapter 11: Thermodynamics

Examines thermal equilibrium, the Zeroth, First, and Second Laws of Thermodynamics. Highlights internal energy, work done during thermodynamic processes (isothermal, adiabatic, isobaric, isochoric), and heat engines/refrigerators.

💨 Chapter 12: Kinetic Theory

Connects macroscopic behavior of ideal gases to microscopic molecular motion. Covers the kinetic theory assumptions, molecular derivation of pressure, kinetic interpretation of temperature, degrees of freedom, law of equipartition of energy, and mean free path.

🕰️ Chapter 13: Oscillations

Focuses on periodic and oscillatory systems, primarily Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM). Analyzes displacement, velocity, acceleration, force constant, energy conservation in SHM, and derivation of time periods for an oscillating spring-mass system and a simple pendulum.

🔊 Chapter 14: Waves

Introduces wave mechanics in elastic media. Covers longitudinal and transverse waves, wave velocity, displacement relation for a progressive wave, the principle of superposition, reflection of waves, standing waves in strings and organ pipes, and beat frequencies.
