About this product

Product Information

As the most widely adopted new physics text in more than 50 years, Knight's Physics for Scientists and Engineers was published to widespread critical acclaim from professors and students. In this eagerly awaited second edition, Knight builds on the research-proven instructional techniques he introduced, as well as national data of student performance, to take student learning even further. Knight's unparalleled insight into student learning difficulties, and his impeccably skillful crafting of text and figures at every level - from macro to micro - to address these difficulties, results in a uniquely effective and accessible book, leading students to a deeper and better-connected understanding of the concepts and more proficient problem-solving skills. Building on an NSF-sponsored educational research program and input from tens of thousands of student users, the second edition refines and extends the pedagogical innovations that years of use has now shown to be effective. Unprecedented analysis of national student metadata has allowed every problem to be systematically enhanced for educational effectives, and to ensure problem sets of ideal topic coverage, balance of qualitative and quantitative problems, and range of difficulty and duration. The second edition comes with the latest edition of MasteringPhysics(tm)- the most advanced, educationally effective (as shown by gains in student exams scores and independent tests), and widely used online physics tutorial and homework system in the world. It provides the largest library of research-based tutorials and textbook problems available, and automatic grading of activities as wide ranging as numerical problems with randomized values and algebraic answers to free-hand drawn graphs and free-body diagrams.

    Physics for Scientists and Engineers by Randall Dewey K

    It is a book that I needed for college. I bought one before and didn't use it for half the semester. My teacher was terrible so I decided to just read the book instead of trying to understand some fast pace foreign guy. This book really helps with learning how to do physics problems and understanding the concepts however it will take some dedication and hard study time with the use of this book. You need to put effort into it but it will help you a great deal. I needed to buy another because I sold my first and needed the same book again for next semester. I recommend this if you need to learn college high level physics.

    Binghamton University Edition

    I bought this edition in the hopes that it would be the same as the regular version but cheaper. There are two main differences between the Bingham Edition and the regular. The Bingham has a different cover which means if you are signing up only for Mastering Physics (which you have to buy separate, but this is true with all used books) you need to make sure you sign up for the book your class is actually using. Also the Bingham Edition stops at chapter 36. This will be a problem at the end of my second semester of Principles of Physics. It's doubtful any class will actually get to the end of the book, so I am not worried about it.

    Good physics textbook.

    A good slant on basics of physics. You may need different presentations to understand many of the more complicated areas of physics.

    Makes classes easier!

    This book is great. The examples are clear cut and at my University it is good for three different Physics classes. A lot of information in one book!!!!
