Prepare for College Physics Review Material - Algebra and Calculus


Book Description

This is just a basic list of information needed with some examples covering material from pre physics courses in order to get a student up to date with what is needed to succeed throughout the course.




Cambridge IGCSE® Physics Workbook


Book Description

This edition of our successful series to support the Cambridge IGCSE Physics syllabus (0625) is fully updated for the revised syllabus for first examination from 2016. Written by a highly experienced author, Cambridge IGCSE Physics Workbook helps students build the skills required in both their theory and practical examinations. The exercises in this write-in workbook help to consolidate understanding and get used to using knowledge in new situations. They also develop information handling and problem solving skills and develop experimental skills including planning investigations and interpreting results. This accessible book encourages students to engage with the material. The answers to the exercises can be found on the Teacher's Resource CD-ROM.




Quick Math & Physics Review to Prepare for College Physics


Book Description

Complex numbers are rarely used in undergraduate Calculus as Calculus generally works with real numbers. Remember: if you have the following occur that it is probably not of any use.




An Introduction to Mechanics


Book Description

This second edition is ideal for classical mechanics courses for first- and second-year undergraduates with foundation skills in mathematics.

The Calculus Story


Book Description

"[Acheson] introduces the fundamental ideas of calculus through the story of how the subject developed, from approximating π to imaginary numbers, and from Newton's falling apple to the vibrations of an electric guitar."--Back cover




Introduction To Classical Mechanics


Book Description

This textbook aims to provide a clear and concise set of lectures that take one from the introduction and application of Newton's laws up to Hamilton's principle of stationary action and the lagrangian mechanics of continuous systems. An extensive set of accessible problems enhances and extends the coverage.It serves as a prequel to the author's recently published book entitled Introduction to Electricity and Magnetism based on an introductory course taught sometime ago at Stanford with over 400 students enrolled. Both lectures assume a good, concurrent, course in calculus and familiarity with basic concepts in physics; the development is otherwise self-contained.A good introduction to the subject allows one to approach the many more intermediate and advanced texts with better understanding and a deeper sense of appreciation that both students and teachers alike can share.




Calculus on Manifolds


Book Description

This book uses elementary versions of modern methods found in sophisticated mathematics to discuss portions of "advanced calculus" in which the subtlety of the concepts and methods makes rigor difficult to attain at an elementary level.




Introduction to Linear Algebra


Book Description

This is a short text in linear algebra, intended for a one-term course. In the first chapter, Lang discusses the relation between the geometry and the algebra underlying the subject, and gives concrete examples of the notions which appear later in the book. He then starts with a discussion of linear equations, matrices and Gaussian elimination, and proceeds to discuss vector spaces, linear maps, scalar products, determinants, and eigenvalues. The book contains a large number of exercises, some of the routine computational type, while others are conceptual.




Prepare for Calculus Based Physics


Book Description

This book offers an isolation of all the information needed from algebra, trigonometry, precalculus and calculus in order to be prepared for a calculus based physics course in college. The very end of the book offers an intro to the first month of the physics course with pointers and examples. If the student masters all the information in this text, he or she will be overly prepared for the course.
