About the Book

For courses in introductory calculus-based physics. A research-driven approach to physics Physics for Scientists and Engineers incorporates Physics Education Research and cognitive science best practices that encourage conceptual development, problem-solving skill acquisition, and visualization. Knight stresses qualitative reasoning through physics principles before formalizing physics mathematically, developing student problem-solving skills with a systematic, scaffolded approach. The text presents a finely tuned, practical introduction to physics with problems that relate physics to everyday life and includes models, modeling, and advanced topics. With the 5th Edition, new and expanded media and assessments in Mastering and the Pearson eText provide fully integrated print and digital resources for both the active and traditional classroom. New content includes key topics such as Entropy quantitatively, Viscosity and Poiseuille's Equation, and Carnot Efficiency details. This title is also available digitally as a standalone Pearson eText, or via Mastering Physics, which includes the Pearson eText. Contact your Pearson rep for more information. Mastering® empowers you to personalize learning and reach every student. This flexible digital platform combines trusted content with customizable features so you can teach your course your way. And with digital tools and assessments, students become active participants in their learning, leading to better results. Learn more about Mastering Physics. Pearson eText is an easy-to-use digital textbook available within Mastering Physics that lets students read, highlight, take notes, and review key vocabulary all in one place. For instructors not using Mastering Physics, Pearson eText can also be adopted on its own as the main course material. Learn more about Pearson eText.
