Introduction

This modernly designed textbook on experimental physics invites students of physics and neighbouring disciplines to learn mechanics. With clear examples, rich illustrations and modern exercises, the book guides students through the material of the bachelor''s course. The authors focus on experiments, which they explain with the help of many illustrations, thus facilitating the understanding of the physical phenomena. The book covers the mechanics of the point masses and rigid and elastic bodies, aero- and hydrodynamics, as well as oscillations and waves.
