This volume covers Chapters 1--20 of the main text. The Student's Solutions Manual provides detailed, step-by-step solutions to more than half of the odd-numbered end-of-chapter problems from the text. All solutions follow the same four-step problem-solving framework used in the textbook.
SNAP (Student Notes and Problems) Workbooks help students achieve school success…one course at a time. Packed with notes, explanations and illustrative examples, they’ve got everything a student needs to develop a complete understanding of a subject’s key concepts. Each SNAP workbook: • Is written by respected educators • Includes lessons that complement classroom instruction, making at-home study easier • Helps students apply newly-acquired concepts • Offers step-by-step learning through illustrative examples • Provides a wide range of questions and problems for self-testing Improving Grades is a SNAP!
For many years, Protective Relaying: Principles and Applications has been the go-to text for gaining proficiency in the technological fundamentals of power system protection. Continuing in the bestselling tradition of the previous editions by the late J. Lewis Blackburn, the Fourth Edition retains the core concepts at the heart of power system anal
Accelerate student learning with the perfect blend of content and problem-solving strategies with this new Physics program! Organized to save instructors preparation time and to meet the needs of students in diverse classrooms, the program features Supplemental and Challenge Problems, Pre-AP/Critical Thinking Problems and Practice Tests for end-of-course exams!
The Student Study Guide summarizes the essential information in each chapter and provides additional problems for the student to solve, reinforcing the text's emphasis on problem-solving strategies and student misconceptions.
The first complete introduction to waves and wave phenomena by a renowned theorist. Covers damping, forced oscillations and resonance; normal modes; symmetries; traveling waves; signals and Fourier analysis; polarization; diffraction.
This book arms engineers with the tools to apply key physics concepts in the field. A number of the key figures in the new edition are revised to provide a more inviting and informative treatment. The figures are broken into component parts with supporting commentary so that they can more readily see the key ideas. Material from The Flying Circus is incorporated into the chapter opener puzzlers, sample problems, examples and end-of-chapter problems to make the subject more engaging. Checkpoints enable them to check their understanding of a question with some reasoning based on the narrative or sample problem they just read. Sample Problems also demonstrate how engineers can solve problems with reasoned solutions.
This successful text was the first to address the latest trends in the market as suggested by the Introductory University Physics Project (IUPP) guidelines. PRINCIPLES OF PHYSICS features a concise approach to traditional topics, an early introduction to modern physics, and the integration of contemporary topics throughout the text. In addition to a streamlined presentation, it also encourages analytical reasoning and a conceptual understanding of physics through contemporary applications and critical thinking exercises. This text represents an evolutionary approach (rather than a revolutionary approach). This third edition contains many new pedagogical features--most notably, a contextual approach to enhance motivation, an increased emphasis on avoiding misconceptions through the inclusion of Pitfall Preventions, and a problem-solving strategy that uses a modeling approach.
