Add Tag | Summary: | This two-semester introduction to physics assumes only a background in college algebra. Treatment is especially strong in its discussion of work and energy. Organization is logical and flexible. Text is enhanced by hundreds of applications to biology, medicine, architecture, and technology. Problem-solving techniques are presented via over 250 step-by-step examples involving data from real-life situations. Freebody diagrams are found throughout the text, not just in the mechanics section, and data tables and check boxes of variables help students organize data in the kinematics section. Includes 469 thought-provoking questions and over 1,600 graded problems. Illustrated. |
