Applied Physics

Applied Physics, 11/e presents clear, to-the-point, topical coverage of basic physics applied to industrial and technical fields. Throughout the text, emphasis is placed on teaching students to use a consistent problem-solving methodology. A wealth of real-world applications are presented, motivating students by teaching physics concepts in context. Updated with new color photos, clarifications, and enhancements, the Eleventh Edition also features sections on physics-related careers and new technologies to engage readers in the material.

 New in the Eleventh Edition:

• Helps students make real-world connections.
  • New Technologies provides up-to-date examples of how physics concepts in the chapter are being utilized in cutting-edge research and products. (Ex. Sections 5.4, 7.2, 9.1, 11.3, 17.13, 18.1, 21.9)
  • Physics on the Job highlights real-world physics-related careers and provides information about the necessary certifications to establish a career in that field. (Ex. After Sections 1.8, 2.3, 6.1, 8.5, 10.8, 13.5, 17.9, 19.2, 20.2, 23.10)
• Appeals to all learners.
  • UPDATED: A four-color format with numerous four-color drawings, diagrams, and photographs is used to illustrate the applications of physics in the real world and improve student interest and comprehension.One hundred new color photos and redrawn 4-color art helps illustrate topics that can be hard to comprehend from reading alone.
