From the Publisher
Electricity and Magnetism (Trig-based Physics)
Chris McMullen, Ph.D.
Learn physics from a university instructor with over 20 years of experience teaching calculus-based (and trig-based) physics in California, Louisiana, Oklahoma, and Pennsylvania.
How does this book help you learn physics?
Clear explanations; communication is vital toward learning physics.
Emphasis on understanding the connection between the math and the concepts.
Explaining key steps in the math.
Hints at the back (in addition to an answer key) help walk you through the solution. The hints address common questions.
Designed to help students.
Each chapter concisely reviews key information.
Relevant formulas are provided and explained.
Handy charts help you quickly understand the symbols and units.
Step-by-step examples serve as a handy guide.
Stuck on a solution? Check the hints section at the back of the book.
The answer to each problem is given at the bottom of the page for easy access.
Lenz's law is broken down into four simple steps.
Topics covered in Volume 2:
Coulomb's law, electric field, electrostatics
Gauss's law, electric potential
circuits with capacitors, circuits with resistors, Ohm's law
the resistor cube, Kirchhoff's rules, resistivity, RC circuits
magnetic field, magnetic force, magnets, right-hand rules
Trig-based physics, Volume 1 (motion). It's basically the calculus-based physics book without any of the calculus.
Over 100 fully solved examples of trig-based physics problems. These are actually the solutions to the problems from Essential Trig-based Physics Study Guide Workbook.
Physics with calculus, Volume 1 (motion), covered in detail (motion, Newton's laws, circular motion, work/energy, satellites, center of mass, collisions, rotation).
Over 100 fully solved examples of calculus-based physics problems. These are actually the solutions to the problems from Essential Calculus-based Physics Study Guide Workbook.
Trig-based physics, Volume 2 (electricity and magnetism), covered in detail.
Trig-based physics, Volume 3 (waves, fluids, sound, heat, and light), covered in detail.
