Physics Workbook For Dummies

Do you have a handle on basic physics terms and concepts, but yourproblem-solving skills could use some static friction? PhysicsWorkbook for Dummies helps you build upon what you already knowto learn how to solve the most common physics problems withconfidence and ease. Physics Workbook for Dummies gets the ball rolling with abrief overview of the nuts and bolts (i.e., converting measures,counting significant figures, applying math skills to physicsproblems, etc.) before getting into the nitty gritty. Ifyou're already a pro on the fundamentals, you can skip thissection and jump right into the practice problems. There,you'll get the lowdown on how to take your problem-solvingskills to a whole new plane--without ever feeling likeyou've been left spiraling down a black hole. With easy-to-follow instructions and practical tips, PhysicsWorkbook for Dummies shows you how to you unleash your innerEinstein to solve hundreds of problems in all facets of physics,such as: * Acceleration, distance, and time * Vectors * Force * Circular motion * Momentum and kinetic energy * Rotational kinematics and rotational dynamics * Potential and kinetic energy * Thermodynamics * Electricity and magnetism Complete answer explanations are included for all problems soyou can see where you went wrong (or right). Plus, you'll getthe inside scoop on the ten most common mistakes people make whensolving physics problems--and how to avoid them. When push comes to shove, this friendly guide is just what youneed to set your physics problem-solving skills in motion!
