Physics for Engineers

Designed for the introductory calculus-based physics course, "Physics for Engineers and Scientists" is distinguished by its lucid exposition and accessible coverage of fundamental physical concepts. Presenting a modern view of classical mechanics and electromagnetism for today's science and engineering students, it includes coverage of optics and quantum physics, emphasising the relationship between macroscopic and microscopic phenomena. Organised to address specific concepts and then build on them, this highly readable textbook divides each chapter into short, focused sections followed by review questions. Using real-world examples, the authors offer a glimpse of the practical applications of physics in science and engineering, developing a solid conceptual foundation before introducing mathematical results and derivations (a basic knowledge of derivatives and integrals is assumed).
