This book, a companion to the textbook, is your guide to observations and explorations in the world of physics. Prepare for challenging work, fun, and some surprises. One of the best ways to learn physics is by doing physics, in the laboratory and everywhere. One cannot rely on reading and class work alone. The explorations in this book are your opportunity to gain some actual, hands-on experience with physics. Many of these explorations will assist you to design your own experiments and to discover many of the important ideas of science yourself.||As you will see from the Contents, this ¿Student Guide¿ provides a variety of potentially helpful materials. Following the Introduction is a review of units, mathematics, and scientific notation, and a list of suggest further reading and Web Sites. However, a large portion of the ¿Student Guide¿ contains further materials relating to many of the textbook chapters, as well as to laboratory explorations. In the section containing ¿Further Chapter Materials¿ you will find elaborations on topics in many of the chapters, as well as derivations of important equations. A complete list of the suggested mini- and major-laboratory explorations is also given in the Contents. Each explorations is keyed to specific portions of the textbook, and lists are also provided of the explorations pertaining to each part of the text.||There are actually three types of laboratory explorations in this book: ¿mini-laboratories,¿ ¿major laboratories,¿ and some suggested ¿laboratory activities.¿ The mini-laboratories are hands-on experiences and demonstrations that enable you to observe and study an event in nature, either in class or in a laboratory. The major laboratories are designed for more in-depth exploration. Finally, the laboratory activities provide ideas for ways in which you might design your own investigations. All three types of explorations are closely tied to the material in the book.
In 1970, after a brief acting career on Broadway and a few spots on
various television shows, David Cassidy was catapulted to fame with
the success of "The Partridge Family." Almost overnight, the
20-year-old reached the pinnacle of teen idol fame as his records
sold millions of copies the world over. In this brutally frank
autobiography, Cassidy gives a firsthand account of those
mind-blowing days of stardom in which being David Cassidy was
subjugated to being Keith Partridge. His accounts of sex and
excessive drug use explode the myth of the squeaky-clean Cassidy,
and tell the true story of how an exhausting tour schedule quickly
took its toll. This story reveals how to keep on living and loving
when the fickle fans fall away.
