Physics for Scientists and Engineers with Modern Physics [PART 2. OSCILLATIONS AND MECHANICAL WAVES]
In writing this eighth edition of Physics for Scientists and Engineers, we continue our
ongoing efforts to improve the clarity of presentation and include new pedagogical
features that help support the learning and teaching processes. Drawing on positive
feedback from users of the seventh edition, data gathered from both professors
and students who use Enhanced WebAssign, as well as reviewers’ suggestions, we
have refined the text to better meet the needs of students and teachers.
This textbook is intended for a course in introductory physics for students majoring
in science or engineering. The entire contents of the book in its extended version
could be covered in a three-semester course, but it is possible to use the material
in shorter sequences with the omission of selected chapters and sections. The
mathematical background of the student taking this course should ideally include
one semester of calculus. If that is not possible, the student should be enrolled in a
concurrent course in introductory calculus.
This introductory physics textbook has two main objectives: to provide the student
with a clear and logical presentation of the basic concepts and principles of physics
and to strengthen an understanding of the concepts and principles through
a broad range of interesting real-world applications. To meet these objectives, we
emphasize sound physical arguments and problem-solving methodology. At the
same time, we attempt to motivate the student through practical examples that
demonstrate the role of physics in other disciplines, including engineering, chemistry,
and medicine.
