Physics

by John D. Cutnell, Kenneth W. Johnson

This Second Edition—designed for a one year course in college physics—includes the following new features: Integration of Concepts explores the common ground between fundamental ideas in the current chapter and previous ones, Problem Solving Insight provides reinforcement and emphasizes issues that students need to recognize as important and a ``reasoning'' step which appears before numerical solutions in each example. Enhanced by hundreds of applications to biology, medicine, architecture and technology. Worked-out examples and homework problems have been substantially increased and full color reproductions added to facilitate students' learning ability.

As a student, I thought examples weren't helpful and because the homework problems were far more complicated than the examples. This is my personal least favorite textbook and I really don't recommend it for teachers who can't clearly explain EVERYTHING clearly.

For PHYS 1410 and 1420: General Physics I and II

I did not find the examples in this book to be helpful. Many of the homework problems were much more complicated that anything that I was taught in class. Typical. My edition came with online access so I rarely use the paper version. Almost all of the homework problems have been worked on Yahoo Answers. Thank goodness!!

Excellent introduction to Physics.. Pra-U students sould use this as references.. The examples in this book are really clear and help us to master the basic concept of physics..

When I find a book that makes me understand voltage in all its forms, I will give it 5 stars.
