University Physics with Modern Physics

Product Information

The prose style is in a manner that converses with you; an over-the-garden-fence talk not on weather but on the entities around us.

Empower each learner: Each student learns at a different pace. Personalized learning pinpoints the precise areas where each student needs practice and gives all students the support they need—when and where they need it—to be successful. Annotated equations illustrate key equations to help students make the connection between a conceptual and a mathematical understanding of physics. Since its first edition, University Physics has been revered for its emphasis on fundamental principles and how to apply them. This text is known for its clear and thorough narrative, as well as its uniquely broad, deep, and thoughtful sets of worked examples that provide students with key tools for developing both conceptual understanding and problem-solving skills. Teach your course your way: Your course is unique. So, whether you’d like to foster student engagement during class or give students anytime, anywhere access, Mastering gives you the flexibility to easily create your course to fit your needs. Expanded—Cumulative problems promote advanced problem-solving techniques by covering knowledge and skills from previous chapters to be integrated with understanding from the current chapter.

Arts, Humanities and Cultures • AQA A-level History: Britain 1851-1964: Challenge and Transformation New—Key Example Variation Problems in the new Guided Practice section are based on worked examples. They build in difficulty by changing scenarios, swapping knowns and unknowns, and adding complexity to provide a wide range of related problems that use the same basic approach to solve. Assignable in Pearson Mastering Physics. Dr. Young’s career was centered entirely on undergraduate education. He wrote several undergraduate-level textbooks, and in 1973 he became a coauthor with Francis Sears and Mark Zemansky for their well-known introductory textbooks. In addition to his role on Sears and Zemansky’s University Physics, he was the author of Sears and Zemansky’s College Physics. New—Alternate problem sets provide additional problem-solving practice and offer instructors more options when creating assignments with hundreds of new questions and problems plus new end-of-chapter problems. Expanded—Caution paragraphs focus on typical misconceptions and student problem areas. Over a dozen more have been added based on common errors made in Pearson Mastering Physics.

Modern Physics, Global Edition + Mastering Physics with Pearson eText 'Mastering via Bundle' which consists of: Four people : Young and Freedman and Sears and Zeemanksy have bound together a book of a lifetime for Physics lovers. Remember that this is an academic book.New—Bridging Problems, now assignable in Pearson Mastering Physics. Bridging Problems follow the Key Example Variation problems and help students move from single-concept worked examples to multi-concept homework problems. This edition draws on insights from several users to help you see patterns and make connections between problem types rather than simply plugging values into an equation. In the 1970s Dr. Freedman worked as a comic book letterer and helped organise the San Diego Comic-Con (now the world's largest popular culture convention) during its first few years. Today, when not in the classroom or slaving over a computer, Dr Freedman can be found either flying (he holds a commercial pilot's license) or with his wife, Caroline, cheering on the rowers of UCSB Men's and Women's Crew. In Memoriam: Hugh Young (1930— 2013) Hugh D. Young is Emeritus Professor of Physics at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, PA. He attended Carnegie Mellon for both undergraduate and graduate study and earned his Ph.D. in fundamental particle theory under the direction of the late Richard Cutkosky. He joined the faculty of Carnegie Mellon in 1956 and has also spent two years as a Visiting Professor at the University of California at Berkeley.
