This book is intended for use by students of general physics, either in calculus or noncalculus-based courses Problems requiring real calculus (not merely calculus notation) are marked with a small superscript e The only way to master general physics is to gain ability and sophistication in problem-solving. This book is meant to make you a master of the art and should do so if used properly A problem is usually easiest solved if you have learned the ideas behind it, but, sometimes, these very ideas emerge in the course of a rath attack. If you are having difficulty with a topic, select a few solved problems at random in that area and examine them carefully Then try to solve related problems without looking at the printed solutions. When you have done this, check your results There are numerous ways of posing a problem and, frequently, numerous ways of solving one. You should try to gain understanding of how to approach various classes of problems, rather than memerizing particular solutions Understanding is better than memory for succeeding in physics The problems in this book cover every important topic, and they are drawn from a variety of expert sources. They range from the simple to the complex and offer the student in almost any college or university physics course plenty of practice and food for thought
