The first volume of a two-volume text that helps students understand physics concepts and scientific problem-solving Volume 1 of the Fundamentals of Physics, 11th Edition helps students embark on an understanding of physics. This loose-leaf text covers a full range of topics, including: measurement, vectors, motion, and force. It also discusses energy, rotation, equilibrium, gravitation, and oscillations as well temperature and heat. The First and Second Law of Thermodynamics are presented, as is the Kinetic Theory of Gases. The text problems, questions, and provided solutions guide students in improving their problem-solving skills.
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.
