About the Textbook

Problem Solving and Problem Sets

A research-based problem-solving approach (Identify, Set Up, Execute, Evaluate) is used not just in every Example but also in the Problem-Solving Strategies and throughout the Student's and Instructor's Solutions Manuals and the Study Guide. This consistent approach teaches students to tackle problems thoughtfully rather than cutting straight to the math.
NEW! DATA problems appear in each chapter. These typically context-rich data-based reasoning problems require students to use experimental evidence, presented in a tabular or graphical format, to formulate conclusions.
NEW! Passage Problems appear in each chapter and follow the format used in the MCAT exam. These problems require students to investigate multiple aspects of a real-life physical situation, typically biological in nature, as described in a reading passage.
REVISED! Bridging Problems help students move from single-concept worked examples to multi-concept problems in the end of chapter and are revised based on reviewer feedback, ensuring that they are effective and at the appropriate difficulty level.
Extensive problem sets cover a wide range of difficulty and exercise both physical understanding and problem-solving expertise. Many problems are based on complex real-life situations.
Problem-Solving Strategies coach students in how to approach specific types of problems.
The number of Examples and Conceptual Examples exceed all other leading calculus-based texts,
Exploring problem-solving challenges that other texts don't address.

Visual Learning

NEW! Annotated equations appear in all key equations to help students make a connection between a conceptual and a mathematical understanding of physics.
The Art Program uses a simplified graphical style to focus on the physics of a situation and incorporates explanatory annotations. Both techniques have been demonstrated to have a strong positive effect on learning.
Figures that illustrate Example solutions often take the form of black-and-white pencil sketches, which directly represent what a student should draw in solving such a problem.
REVISED! Annotated figures enable students to draw the connection from photos, illustrations, and diagrams to the text discussion.

Data and Research-informed Pedagogy

NEW! Data Speaks sidebars, based on MasteringPhysics metadata, alert students to the statistically most common mistakes made when working problems on a given topic.
Caution paragraphs have been revised to ensure that students get to the point quickly to focus them on typical misconceptions and problem areas.
Learning Goals appear at the beginning of each chapter to help students focus their efforts.
NEW! Looking back at . Essential past concepts are listed at the beginning of each chapter to let students know what they need to have mastered before digging into the current chapter.
End-of-section Test Your Understanding questions let students check their grasp of the material and use a multiple-choice or ranking-task format to probe for common misconceptions.
Visual Summaries at the end of each chapter present the key ideas in words, equations, and thumbnail pictures, helping students review more effectively.
NEW! Chapter-Opening Questions have been revised for clickers, so that instructors can easily initiate a classroom discussion. Most of the clicker questions have been written by Roger Freedman.
QR codes throughout the book allow students to use a mobile phone to watch Video Tutor
Demonstrations and Video Tutor Solutions instantly.

Biographie de l'auteur

Hugh D. Young is Emeritus Professor of Physics at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, PA. He attended Carnegie Mellon for both undergraduate and graduate study and earned his Ph.D. in fundamental particle theory under the direction of the late Richard Cutkosky. He joined the faculty of Carnegie Mellon in 1956 and has also spent two years as a Visiting Professor at the University of California at Berkeley.

Prof. Young’s career has centered entirely around undergraduate education. He has written several undergraduate-level textbooks, and in 1973 he became a co-author with Francis Sears and Mark Zemansky for their well-known introductory texts. With their deaths, he assumed full responsibility for new editions of these books until joined by Prof. Freedman for University Physics.

Prof. Young is an enthusiastic skier, climber, and hiker. He also served for several years as Associate Organist at St. Paul’s Cathedral in Pittsburgh, and has played numerous organ recitals in the Pittsburgh area. Prof. Young and his wife Alice usually travel extensively in the summer, especially in Europe and in the desert canyon country of southern Utah.

Roger A. Freedman is a Lecturer in Physics at the University of California, Santa Barbara. Dr. Freedman was an undergraduate at the University of California campuses in San Diego and Los Angeles, and did his doctoral research in nuclear theory at Stanford University under the direction of Professor J. Dirk Walecka. He came to UCSB in 1981 after three years teaching and doing research at the University of Washington.

At UCSB, Dr. Freedman has taught in both the Department of Physics and the College of Creative Studies, a branch of the university intended for highly gifted and motivated undergraduates. He has published research in nuclear physics, elementary particle physics, and laser physics. In recent years, he has helped to develop computer-based tools for learning introductory physics and astronomy. When not in the classroom or slaving over a computer, Dr. Freedman can be found either flying (he holds a commercial pilot’s license) or driving with his wife, Caroline, in their 1960 Nash Metropolitan convertible.

A. Lewis Ford is Professor of Physics at Texas A&M University. He received a B.A. from Rice University in 1968 and a Ph.D. in chemical physics from the University of Texas at Austin in 1972. After a one-year postdoc at Harvard University, he joined the Texas A&M physics faculty in 1973 and has been there ever since. Professor Ford’s research area is theoretical atomic physics, with a specialization in atomic collisions. At Texas A&M he has taught a variety of undergraduate and graduate courses, but primarily introductory physics.
