Halliday and Resnick's Principles of Physics


Book Description

The classic textbook that builds scientific literacy and logical reasoning ability Principles of Physics, now in its 11th edition, is renowned for teaching students, not just the basic concepts of physics, but also the superior problem-solving skills needed to apply what they have learned. With thematic modules and clear learning objectives, students will never be left asking, “Why am I learning this?” End-of-chapter questions range from the mathematically challenging to the conceptually complex, to truly instill in students a working knowledge of calculus-based physics. This new edition features problems that represent a “best of” selection reaching all the way back to the book’s first publication. The strongest and most interesting questions from all the Principles of Physics editions will challenge and stimulate students as they learn how the world works. Altogether, this user-friendly text is peerless in its ability to help students build scientific literacy and physics skill.

Fundamentals of Physics


Book Description

The 10th edition of Halliday, Resnick and Walkers Fundamentals of Physics provides the perfect solution for teaching a 2 or 3 semester calculus-based physics course, providing instructors with a tool by which they can teach students how to effectively read scientific material, identify fundamental concepts, reason through scientific questions, and solve quantitative problems. The 10th edition builds upon previous editions by offering new features designed to better engage students and support critical thinking. These include NEW Video Illustrations that bring the subject matter to life, NEW Vector Drawing Questions that test students conceptual understanding, and additional multimedia resources (videos and animations) that provide an alternative pathway through the material for those who struggle with reading scientific exposition. WileyPLUS sold separately from text.




Fundamentals of Physics Extended


Book Description

This book arms engineers with the tools to apply key physics concepts in the field. A number of the key figures in the new edition are revised to provide a more inviting and informative treatment. The figures are broken into component parts with supporting commentary so that they can more readily see the key ideas. Material from The Flying Circus is incorporated into the chapter opener puzzlers, sample problems, examples and end-of-chapter problems to make the subject more engaging. Checkpoints enable them to check their understanding of a question with some reasoning based on the narrative or sample problem they just read. Sample Problems also demonstrate how engineers can solve problems with reasoned solutions.







Fundamentals of Physics, Extended


Book Description

Fundamentals of Physics, 12th Edition guides students through the process of learning how to effectively read scientific material, identify fundamental concepts, reason through scientific questions, and solve quantitative problems. The 12th edition includes a renewed focus on several contemporary areas of research to help challenge students to recognize how scientific and engineering applications are fundamental to the world’s clockwork. A wide array of tools will support students’ active learning as they work through and engage in this course. Fundamentals of Physics, 12e is built to be a learning center with practice opportunities, interactive challenges, activities, simulations, and videos. Practice and assessment questions are available with immediate feedback and detailed solutions, to ensure that students understand the problem-solving processes behind key concepts and understand their mistakes while working through problems.

For students there are a Student Study Guide, Student Solutions Manual, and Student Website. For instructors there are a Instructor's Solutions Manual (both print and electronic), Test Bank, Computerized Test bank, Transparencies, and IRCD with Simulations. EGrade is also available as a testing option About The Book: This is the most comprehensive and detailed book on the market. It has been edited to clarify conceptual development in light of recent findings from physics education research, and the mechanics sequence has been re-organised so that energy is a capstone topic. The presentation of thermodynamics and quantum mechanics has been updated to provide a more modern approach, and the end-of-chapter problem sets have been thoroughly over-hauled: new problems added; out-dated references deleted; and new short-answer conceptual questions added. The supplements package has been expanded to include more materials for student and instructor.
