Physics for scientists and engineers with modern physics: (Chapters 1-46)

PHYSICS FOR SCIENTISTS AND ENGINEERS reveals the beauty and simplicity of physics while highlighting its essential role in other disciplines, from engineering to medicine. This proven text features the Serway hallmarks of concise writing, carefully thought-out problem sets, world class worked examples, and leading-edge educational pedagogy. With the Seventh Edition, authors Raymond A. Serway and John W. Jewett, Jr. build upon this strong foundation by carrying that high standard to the book's carefully integrated technology package, perfectly tailored to support any course design. All end-of-chapter problems, workedexamples, and quick quizzes are available in Enhanced WebAssign (with hints and feedback formulated to foster student learning), allowing instructors to securely create and administer homework assignments in an interactive online environment. For instructors utilizing classroom response technology, a complete suite of PowerPoint®-formatted questions designed to support all levels of users, from amateur through advanced, is available to support the "clicker" software of your choosing. The result is the most complete course solution you willfind; and one that is scalable to meet your and your students' unique needs. INDICE: Part I: MECHANICS. 1. Physics and Measurement. 2.
