A New Approach to I.C.S.E. Physics (for Class X) has been revised in accordance with the latest Syllabus prescribed by the Council for Indian School Certificate Examination, New Delhi for Class 10. The main strength of this book lies in the scientific content and rearrangement of the prescribed syllabus, such that the topics are linked to each other and do not cause any unnecessary stress on the mind of students. Emphasis has been laid upon mastering the fundamental principles of Physics, rather than specific procedures and on selecting the areas of contemporary interest rather than of past interest. The main strength of the book lies in the subject matter and the experience that a student will get in solving difficult and complex problems of Physics. Salient features of this book are as follows : • Thoroughly revised and upgraded. Written in new format with figures, examples and definitions highlighted. • Full-size diagrams are given. The size of diagrams is the same as is expected from a student in examinations. * Topic-wise video lectures are given as a support for effective learning. * At the end of each chapter, there are given enough Solved Numerical Problems. This will help the students to solve numericals on their own. * Most of the numerical problems are of contemporary interest and are in Sl units. The motive has been to evaluate the application of principles rather than to test the mathematical skill of students. * ICSE Specimen Question Paper has been given. * Scan QR codes given at the end of each chapter to get the solution of chapter-wise ICSE Board Examination Questions. We hope that this book would prove very useful to fellow teachers and students. Suggestions and constructive criticism for the improvement of the book are welcome and shall be gratefully acknowledged. -Author
