International Edition University Physics
About this book
International Edition University Physics aims to provide an authoritative treatment and pedagogical presentation in the subject of physics. The text covers basic topics in physics such as scalars and vectors, the first and second condition of equilibrium, torque, center of gravity, and velocity and acceleration. Also covered are Newton's laws; work, energy, and power; the conservation of energy, linear momentum, and angular momentum; the mechanical properties of matter; fluid mechanics, and wave kinematics. College students who are in need of a textbook for introductory physics would find this book a reliable reference material.
