This is not only a textbook of physics for XIIth standard, but contains material that will be useful for the reader for self study. This textbook aims to give the student a broad perspective to look into the physics aspect in various phenomena they experience. The National Curriculum Framework (NCR) was formulated in the year 2005, followed by the State Curriculum Framework (SCF) in 2010. Based on the given two frameworks, reconstruction of the curriculum and preparation of a revised syllabus has been undertaken which will be introduced from the academic year 2020-21. The textbook incorporating the revised syllabus has been prepared and designed by the Maharashtra State Bureau of Textbook Production and Curriculum Research, (Balbharati), Pune. The objective of bringing out this book is to prepare students to observe and analyse various physical phenomena is the world around them and prepare a solid foundation for those who aspire for admission to professional courses through competitive examinations. Most of the chapters in this book assume background knowledge of the subject covered by the text book for XIth Standard, and care has been taken of mentioning this in the appropriate sections of the book. The book is not in the form of handy notes but embodies a good historical background and in depth discussion as well. A number of solved examples in every chapter and exercises at the end of each one of them are included with a view that students will acquire proficiency and also will get enlightened after solving the exercises. Physics is a highly conceptual subject. Problem solving will enable students understand the underlying concepts. For students who want more, boxes entitled ‘Do you know?’ have been included at a number of places. If you read the book carefully and solve the exercises in each chapter, you will be well prepared to face the challenges of this competitive world and pave the way for a successful career ahead. The efforts taken to prepare the textbook will prove to be worthwhile if you read the textbook and understand the subject. We hope it will be a wonderful learning experience for you and an illuminating text material for teachers too.
