Physics
by R. Terance Egolf Rachel SantopietroPhysics introduces students to the world of forces, movement, mechanics, and energy in an engaging and clearly written textbook. It also lays the foundations of electricity, magnetism, and optics, and stresses a logical problem-solving approach with many examples and diagrams. Students will put their math skills to use in a derivative approach. Your students will see how physics is used to solve important problems that help preserve human life and vastly improve the quality of our lives. These applications make for engaging and stimulating classroom discussions. Students will also work directly with real-world data sets to model physical phenomena that gives them a much better understanding of and appreciation for the orderliness of God''s creation. These activities help students build proper scientific paradigms founded on biblical principles. Presented as an algebra-based physics course. Two years of algebra and geometry are recommended as a prerequisite. The second year of algebra may be taken concurrently.
Physics
by Alan Giambattista Betty McCarthy Richardson Robert C. RichardsonThis Physics textbook presents the basic concepts of physics that students need to know for later courses and future careers. This text helps students learn that physics is a tool for understanding the real world, and to teach transferable problem-solving skills, that students can use throughout their entire lives. Some of the most important enhancements in this edition include: new/updated MCAT exam coverage added and moved online, review and synthesis problems added, new biomedical applications, lists of biomedical applications at the beginning of each chapter, new ranking tasks, checkpoints, and collaborative problems. Connections have also been enhanced to help students see the bigger picture.
Physics
by Alan Giambattista Betty Richardson Robert RichardsonPhysics 2nd edition is an alternate version of the College Physics 3rd edition text by Giambattista/Richardson/Richardson. The key difference is that Physics covers kinematics and forces in the more traditional organization of beginning with Kinematics and proceeding to forces. (College Physics takes an integrated approach to forces and kinematics, introducing forces and interweaving kinematics.).
Physics: Principles with Applications
by Douglas GiancoliThe ultimate aim is to give students a thorough understanding of the basic concepts of physics in all its aspects, from mechanics to modern physics. A second objective is to show students how useful physics is in their own everyday lives and in their future professions by means of interesting applications to biology, medicine, architecture, and more.
Physics: Principles with Applications (6th edition)
by Douglas C. GiancoliThis algebra-based physics text contains many intriguing applications, including airbags, bungee jumping, photocopiers, highway mirages, and computer hard drives. The pedagogy has been updated to reflect new research on how students learn. Consequently, chapters now include two or three conceptual examples--each a sort of brief Socratic question and answer. Estimating examples show how to make order-of-magnitude estimates even when the data are scarce.

Physics: Principles and Applications
by Douglas C. GiancoliFor algebra-based introductory physics courses taken primarily by pre-med, agricultural, technology, and architectural students. This best-selling algebra-based physics text is known for its elegant writing, engaging biological applications, and exactness. <p><p> This revised introductory algebra-based physics textbook incorporates a number of changes and updates but its basic intent and general outline remain the same. The book is intended to be readable, interesting, and accessible to students, and is meant to give them u thorough understanding of the basic concepts of physics and, by means of many interesting applications, to prepare them to use physics in their own lives and professions. It is particularly appropriate for introductory physics courses taken by students studying biology, (pre)medicine, architecture, technology, earth and environmental sciences, and other disciplines; it is also suitable for use in colleges that offer only one introductory physics course. <p><p> The goal is for students to view the world through eyes that know physics.

Physics: Volume 2
by David Halliday Robert Resnick Kenneth S. KraneWritten for the full year or three term Calculus-based University Physics course for science and engineering majors, the publication of the first edition of Physics in 1960 launched the modern era of Physics textbooks. It was a new paradigm at the time and continues to be the dominant model for all texts. Physics is the most realistic option for schools looking to teach a more demanding course. The entirety of Volume 2 of the 5th edition has been edited to clarify conceptual development in light of recent findings of physics education research. End-of-chapter problem sets are thoroughly over-hauled, new problems are added, outdated references are deleted, and new short-answer conceptual questions are added.
