This updated edition is designed as a self-teaching, calculus-based introduction to the concepts of physics. Numerous examples, applications, and figures provide readers with simple explanations. Standard topics include vectors, conservation of energy, Newton’s Laws, momentum, motion, gravity, relativity, waves, fluid mechanics, circuits, nuclear physics, astrophysics, and more. The aim of this book is to draw on the essential physical principles that typical physics courses use to provide a strong conceptual base for the further study of more advanced topics. As such this book provides support for both introductory courses (calculus-based) and for readers interested in a basic review of key topics in physics. It will also be a useful reference work for instructors. The focus is on physical principles. Applications are used to exemplify the physics but do not divert attention from the underlying concepts. Mathematics is the language of physics and a mathematical approach is taken throughout, drawing mathematical techniques including basic calculus. The approach here acknowledges this and helps to secure a foundation of relevant mathematical skills in the context of real physical problems.
