Physics is an essential component of any curriculum that incorporates science and engineering. This book aims to provide students with an introduction to various fundamental concepts in physics, while also showcasing how different theories have emerged from physical observations and phenomena. The book is organized into multi-chapter sections covering electrostatics, magnetism, and electromagnetic waves, with a focus on both historical and contemporary aspects. Throughout the chapters, readers will explore key concepts such as Coulomb's law, Gauss's law, Maxwell's equations, Ohm's law, Biot-Savart law, Ampere's law, Faraday's law, Fresnel's equations, and Lorentz's transformations. Additionally, an appendix provides a brief overview of mathematical background related to vector analysis and vector differential operators.

The book adopts a practical approach, emphasizing examples and problem-solving techniques to illustrate how physical theories are applied in engineering and science. It is primarily designed for undergraduate students in these fields, although it also includes chapters that cater to senior undergraduates working on their final-year theses. By presenting a comprehensive and engaging exploration of physics, this book aims to enhance students' understanding of the subject and prepare them for further academic and professional pursuits.
