This is the companion solution manual for the Fluids and Waves textbook. Each chapter contains both a copy of the problems as they appear in the Fluids and Waves text book followed by detailed, worked solutions for each of the problems. In this way the text can be used as a standalone book of worked exercises should the reader not wish to use it with the Fluids and Waves textbook.The book contains the following chapters which match those in the main textbook:Mathematics - Complex numbers, complex exponentials, partial derivatives, experimental uncertainties.Elasticity - Stress, strain, moduli of elasticity, bulk stress, strain and modulusFluid Statics - pressure, Pascal's law, measuring pressures, Archimedes' principleFluid Dynamics - continuity equation, Bernoulli's equation, Torricelli's law, viscosity, Poiseuille's law, Stokes' lawOscillations - simple harmonic motion, simple and compound pendulums, damped harmonic motion, driven oscillatorsWaves - types of waves, mathematical description of a wave, waves on a string, acoustic waves, wave power and intensityWave Interactions - principle of superposition, reflection at a boundary, interference, beats, standing waves, the relativistic and non-relativistic doppler effectLight Waves - basic geometric optics, Huyghens' principle, dispersion, polarization, thin film interference, diffractionIntroduction to Quantum Mechanics - atomic spectra, blackbody spectrum, photo-electric effect, Bohr atom, de Broglie wavelength, Schr?dinger equation
