An Introduction to Physics is a textbook aimed at the beginning physics student. Written in a clear style accessible to students who do not have a strong science background, this text is designed to make an intimidating subject more approachable. The examples and descriptions are easy to follow and there are numerous connections to a student's everyday experiences. Mathematical calculations are presented in an easy, step-by-step manner to further the student's understanding. This text is a broad survey of core physics topics, with chapters covering: - Units and measurement - 1-Dimensional kinematics - 2-Dimensional kinematics - Forces - Work and energy - Impulse, momentum, and center of mass - Heat and temperature - Electric charge, voltage, current, resistance, and electric circuits - Waves - Sound, decibel level, and the Doppler effect Each chapter contains numerous fully worked example problems with detailed explanations of the steps involved. The appendix includes solutions for all in-chapter practice problems as well as additional problems to work. Further, an extended, fully detailed glossary provides a quick reference for over 200 defined vocabulary words and phrases introduced in the text. A compilation of all major equations is given in a reference section at the end of the book. If you are new to physics, are looking for a book with clear examples and everyday language, or are currently enrolled in a physics course and are looking for supplemental material, this is the book for you.
