本書序言This text is intended for a calculus-based introductory physics course for science and engineering students. Ideally,students should have completed one semester of calculus. However, calculus may also be taken concurrently. Derivativesare used sparingly in the early chapters in Mechanics, and integrals appear for the first time in Chapter 7 (Work and Energy)but are not crucial for the understanding of basic concepts.This 4th. edition of University Physics incorporates several changes meant to enhance the appeal and effectiveness of thetext and includes several new applications of Physics in Science, Engineering and everyday life. Despite the addition of newmaterial this 4th. edition remains relatively short.Now to This Edition● New Layout: The page layout and artwork have been revamped and updated.● Self-Test: each chapter now includes a short Self-Test with complete solutions provided at the back of the book. This feature is meant to give the student some feedback on how well the
