A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

∗ Can be utilized in either Algebra or Calculus–based courses and is available either as a standalone text or as a supplement for books like Cutnell PHYSICS, 5e or Halliday, Resnick, & Walker FUNDAMENTALS OF PHYSICS, 6e.
∗ Math level is Algebra & Trigonometry; however, a few examples require the use of integration and differentiation.
∗ Unlike competing supplements, Tuszinski offers both a wealth of engaging biomedical applications as well as quantitative problem–solving. The quantitative problem–solving is presented in the form of worked examples and homework problems.
∗ The quantitative problem–solving is presented in the form of worked examples and homework problems.
∗ The standard organization facilitates the integration of the material into most introductory courses.

Quatrième de couverture :

Reflecting the authors′ view that students should be exposed to physics as an applied science, the purpose of this book is two–fold: (1) to demonstrate to students of introductory physics the importance of elementary physical concepts in explaining biomedical phenomena and (2) to provide the physics instructors with a resource of biomedical examples, solved problems, and unsolved exercises.

Designed as a supplement to any two–semester introductory physics textbook, its examples range from the structure of DNA to the effects of biological radiation on the human body. Related topics include such high–interest topics as energy requirements during strenuous exercise or the hydrodynamics of the blood circulation in the body.
