เนื้อหาย่อ : In writing this fifth edition of Physics for Scientists and Engineers, we har
major effort to improve the clarity of presentation and to include new pedagogical
res that help support the learning and teaching processes. Drawin
feedback from users of the fourth edition and reviewers' syggestion
made refinements in order to better meet the needs of students and teachers. We
have also streamlined the supplements package, which now includes a CD-ROM con-
taining student tutorials and interactive problem-solving software, as well as offerings
on the World Wide Web.
is textbook is intended for a course in introductory physics for stude
ing in science or engineering. The entire contents of the text could be covered in a
three-semester course, but it is possible to use the material in shorter sequences with
the omission of selected chapters and sections. The mathematical background of the
student taking this course should ideally include one semester of calculus. If that is
not possible, the student should be enrolled in a concurrent course in introductory
calculus.
OBJECTIVES
This introductory physics textbook has two main objectives: to provide the student
with a clear and logical presentation of the basic concepts and principles of physics,
and to strengthen an understanding of the concepts and principles through a broad
range of interesting applications to the real world. To meet these objectives, we have
ced emphasis on sound physical arguments and problem-solving metho
the same time, we have attempted to motivate the student through practical examples
that demonstrate the role of physics in other disciplines, including engineering,
chemistry, and medicine.
CHANGES IN THE FIFTH EDITION
A large number of changes and improvements have been made in preparing the fifth
n of this text. Some of the new features are based on our experien
rent trends in science education. Other changes have been incorp
response to comments and suggestions offered by users of the fourth edition and by
reviewers of the manuscript. The following represent the major changes in the fifth
edition:
Improved Illustrations
ㆍ Time-sequenced events are represented by circled letters in selected mechanics
illustrations. For example, Figure 2.1b (see page 25) shows such letters at the
appropriate places on a position-time graph. This construction helps students
"translate" the observed motion into its graphical representation.
