A clear and easy to follow textbook including material on forces, machines, motion, properties of matter, electronics and energy, problem-solving investigations and practice in experimental design.
This text provides an introduction to the important physics underpinning current technologies, highlighting key concepts in areas that include linear and rotational motion, energy, work, power, heat, temperature, fluids, waves, and magnetism. This revision reflects the latest technology advances, from smart phones to the Internet of Things, and all kinds of sensors. The author also provides more modern worked examples with useful appendices and laboratories for hands-on practice. There are also two brand new chapters covering sensors as well as electric fields and electromagnetic radiation as applied to current technologies.
This is part two of two for College Physics. This book covers chapters 18-34. Please note: The text and images in this textbook are grayscale and the format size has been reduced from 8.5" x 11" to 7.44" x 9.69." This introductory, algebra-based, two-semester college physics book is grounded with real-world examples, illustrations, and explanations to help students grasp key, fundamental physics concepts. College Physics includes learning objectives, concept questions, links to labs and simulations, and ample practice opportunities to solve traditional physics application problems.
It is well written, well illustrated and has a fresh approach. - Professor Malcolm Cooper ...it covers the topics of introductory physics in a uniform and refreshing way. - Dr. Jan Petter Hansen ...it has just the coverage that we have been looking for but have so far been unable to find. - Dr. Edward Thomas In my opinion this is an excellent text. It is well balanced, it is explanatory and it has an interesting integrated structure - Dr. Leif Karlsson The authors have succeeded very well in including 'really modern physics' in such a way, that it is meaningful and understandable. - Dr. Ton van Leeuwen A solid text-boo, well written. Many original derivations. Good examples and exercises. In many ways this book is quite exceptional in its approach which is quite original... - Professor Alex Montwill
Physics is fundamental to all aspects of digital photography. This book works through the physics underlying the photographic imaging chain, from image capture through to the production of a viewable output digital image. It provides an invaluable insight into the connections between imaging science and photographic practice and is intended for use by both graduate students and established researchers. In this updated and expanded new edition, the material has been re-organised and extensively rewritten and the figures have been enhanced.

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.
Richard Wolfson's Essential University Physics, Second Edition is a concise and progressive calculus-based physics textbook that offers clear writing, great problems, and relevant real-life applications. This text is a compelling and affordable alternative for professors who want to focus on the fundamentals and bring physics to life for their students. Essential University Physics focuses on the fundamentals of physics, teaches sound problem-solving skills, emphasizes conceptual understanding, and makes connections to the real world. The presentation is concise without sacrificing a solid introduction to calculus-based physics. New pedagogical elements have been introduced that incorporate proven results from physics education research. Features such as annotated figures and step-by-step problem-solving strategies help students master concepts and solve problems with confidence. The Second Edition features dramatically revised and updated end-of-chapter problem sets, significant content updates, new Conceptual Examples, and additional Applications, all of which serve to foster student understanding and interest. Essential University Physics is offered as two paperback volumes, available shrink-wrapped together, or for sale individually. This package contains: Essential University Physics: Volume 2, Second Edition (which includes Chapters 20-39)
