An updated and thoroughly revised third edition of the foundational
text offering an introduction to physics with a comprehensive
interactive website The revised and updated third edition of
Understanding Physics presents a comprehensive introduction to
college-level physics. Written with today's students in mind, this
compact text covers the core material required within an
introductory course in a clear and engaging way. The authors -
noted experts on the topic - offer an understanding of the physical
universe and present the mathematical tools used in physics. The
book covers all the material required in an introductory physics
course. Each topic is introduced from first principles so that the
text is suitable for students without a prior background in
physics. At the same time the book is designed to enable students
to proceed easily to subsequent courses in physics and may be used
to support such courses. Relativity and quantum mechanics are
introduced at an earlier stage than is usually found in
introductory textbooks and are integrated with the more 'classical'
material from which they have evolved. Worked examples and links to
problems, designed to be both illustrative and challenging, are
included throughout. The links to over 600 problems and their
solutions, as well as links to more advanced sections, interactive
problems, simulations and videos may be made by typing in the URL's
which are noted throughout the text or by scanning the micro QR
codes given alongside the URL's, see: http: //up.ucc.ie This new
edition of this essential text: Offers an introduction to the
principles for each topic presented Presents a comprehensive yet
concise introduction to physics covering a wide range of material
Features a revised treatment of electromagnetism, specifically the
more detailed treatment of electric and magnetic materials Puts
emphasis on the relationship between microscopic and macroscopic
perspectives Is structured as a foundation course for undergraduate
students in physics, materials science and engineering Has been
rewritten to conform with the revised definitions of SI base units
which came into force in May 2019 Written for first year physics
students, the revised and updated third edition of Understanding
Physics offers a foundation text and interactive website for
undergraduate students in physics, materials science and
engineering.
