As the most widely adopted new physics text in over 50 years, this acclaimed work has been enhanced in its eagerly awaited second edition. Building on proven instructional techniques and national student performance data, it aims to further improve student learning. The author’s deep understanding of learning challenges, combined with expertly crafted text and figures, fosters a more profound and interconnected grasp of concepts and better problem-solving abilities. The second edition refines pedagogical innovations based on extensive feedback from tens of thousands of students and an NSF-sponsored educational research program. An unprecedented analysis of national student data has systematically improved every problem for educational effectiveness, ensuring ideal topic coverage, a balance of qualitative and quantitative challenges, and a range of difficulty levels. Additionally, this edition includes the latest MasteringPhysics™, the most effective online physics tutorial and homework system globally. It features the largest library of research-based tutorials and textbook problems, alongside automatic grading for a variety of activities, from numerical problems with randomized values to free-hand drawn graphs and free-body diagrams.

Built from the ground up on our new understanding of how students learn physics, Randall Knight's introductory university physics textbook leads readers to a deeper understanding of the concepts and more proficient problem-solving skills. This authoritative text provides effective learning strategies and in-depth instruction to better guide readers around the misconceptions and preconceptions they often bring to the course. The superior problem-solving pedagogy of Physics for Scientists and Engineers uses a detailed, methodical approach that sequentially builds skills and confidence for tackling more complex problems. Knight combines rigorous quantitative coverage with a descriptive, inductive approach that leads to a deeper student understanding of the core concepts. Pictorial, graphical, algebraic, and descriptive representations for each concept are skillfully combined to provide a resource that students with different learning styles can readily grasp. A comprehensive, integrated approach introducing key topics of physics, including Newton's Laws, Conservation Laws, Newtonian Mechanics, Thermodynamics, Wave and Optics, Electricity and Magnetism, and Modern Physics. For college instructors, students, or anyone with an interest in physics.
