100 Instructive Trig-Based Physics Examples: The Laws of Motion, Paperback/Chris McMullen

Descriere

Description DESCRIPTION: over 100 fully-solved examplesstep-by-step solutions with explanationsstandard problems from trig-based physicsincludes tables of equations, symbols, and units This volume covers motion, including uniform acceleration, vector addition, projectile motion, Newton's laws, conservation of energy, work, collisions, rotation, center of mass, moment of inertia, satellites, and more. (Vol. 2 covers electricity and magnetism, while Vol. 3 covers waves, fluids, heat, sound, and light. Vol.'s 2-3 will be released in the spring of 2017.)AUTHOR: The author, Dr. Chris Mc Mullen, has over 20 years of experience teaching university physics in California, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, and Louisiana (and has also taught physics to gifted high school students). Dr. Mc Mullen currently teaches physics at Northwestern State University of Louisiana. He has also published a half-dozen papers on the collider phenomenology of superstring-inspired large extra dimensions. Chris Mc Mullen earned his Ph. D. in particle physics from Oklahoma State University (and his M. S. in physics from California State University, Northridge).Dr. Mc Mullen is well-known for: engaging physics students in challenging ideas through creativitybreaking difficult problems down into manageable stepsproviding clear and convincing explanations to subtle issueshis mastery of physics and strong background in mathematicshelping students become more fluent in practical math skills MATH REVIEW: Separate chapters cover essential algebra, geometry, and trigonometry skills. USES: This physics book serves two functions: It provides a variety of examples for how to solve fundamental physics problems. It's also the solutions manual to Essential Trig-based Physics Study Guide Workbook, ISBN 978-1-941691-14-4. About the Author Chris Mc Mullen is a physics instructor at Northwestern State University of Louisiana and also an author of academic books. Whether in the classroom or as a writer, Dr. Mc Mullen loves sharing knowledge
