Add Tag | Summary: | Written in language that students understand, the authors present problems in this workbook that help students grasp a conceptual understanding of physics. They start first with short, manageable questions followed by longer ones. Mathematical problem solving is emphasized but not the focus of the problems. Rather than repeat what physics textbooks present, this workbook uses problems to teach students the fundamentals of physics. Each problem builds on the preceding successfully completed one so the students are motivated by their success. The authors provide detailed solutions in the workbook for some problems for students to learn how to approach, and ultimately to solve, problems. |
