More than 500,000 students have purchased previous editions of this book! That's because this powerful study tool offers clear explanations and constant reinforcements, so that students quickly grasp this potentially difficult subject matter. It takes students from vectors to thermodynamics to applied nuclear physics, teaching effective problem-solving skills. The numerous, valuable appendixes make often-needed, basic information easy to find quickly, so this book is also an excellent reference. The new edition of this best-selling book gives users a solid grasp of the principles of general physics through their application to a large number of carefully selected problems. The Ninth Edition features a new order of presentation that reflects the current physics curriculum and textbooks. Existing problems have been updated, and new problems have been added that deal with more realistic and practical situations, including those in the life sciences. Leer más…

This is another in the Schaum's series that is excellent for review, good as a supplement and almost impossible to use as a stand-alone learning tool. The problems are all suitable for the (re)study of differential and integral calculus, they are worked out in enough detail and the coverage of two semesters of calculus is essentially complete. If you have taken calculus and did well in the course, then there is no better way to perform a quick brushing up of your skills. Other than that, using this book is problematical. Leer más…

I cannot say enough good things about this book! The size was intimidating at first, but don't be afraid! This book loves you and wants to help you. For me, there is no better way to learn physics than by going over problem after problem. This book helps in a way a textbook only touches on: by showing you HOW to solve the problems. The questions at the end of the textbook chapter don't do that. And they also work a bit like a textbook in that some of the problems teach you key facts about a subject. This is great because rather than telling you these facts, like in a textbook, they show you. The problems really become addicting. They make you feel so empowered and you really can tell you are learning. It actually makes you say, "oh, I'll do just one more!" And I don't even really like physics. Leer más…

Many say Schaum's is "just an outline", a "supplement to the textbook". Well, first of all, there are few trig textbooks out there; mostly one learns trig in a few chapters during pre-cal high school class. And I doubt most high school students (including me) really understood or remember "the theory". I just bought this book, and am now on the vectors chapter. I feel I understand every section just fine. Some of the problems are written in a confusing manner, however. For example, one problem talks about "evenly-spaced holes in a circle". I tried doing the problem by putting dots onto a circle, but the problem meant "holes" as "points" on the circumference of a circle. Another problem talked about a lighthouse seeing a boat heading "due south", and then "due west", forcing the student to intuit this as a 3-D trig problem. I didn't, and solved a 2-D problem instead. In the vectors chapter, it also makes a couple of assumptions. One is that the windspeed angle must form a 90 degree angle from the airspeed vector, in order for you to solve it. The example diagram clearly shows an obtuse angle, but the problem shows what appears to be a 90 degree angle. Of course, in order to even solve it, it MUST be 90 degrees. But Schaum's did not say this angle MUST be 90 degrees. Unless you are sharp, you'll miss the fact that you cannot solve EVERY airspeed/groundspeed/windspeed vector problem! On the example of the inclined plane and the weight, Schaum's simply states that the... Leer más…

The the Classic Text Series is the only of its kind selection of classic pieces of work that started off as bestseller and continues to be the bestseller even today. These classic texts have been designed so as to work as elementary textbooks which play a crucial role in building the concepts from scratch as in-depth knowledge of concepts is necessary for students preparing for various entrance examinations.This book on Problems in General Physics containingabout 1900 problems with hints for solving the most complicated ones has been designed for students studying advanced course in Physics. The book has been divided into six parts covering Physical Fundamentals of Mechanics, Thermodynamics & Molecular Physics, Electrodynamics, Oscillations & Waves, Optics and Atomic & Nuclear Physics, each segregated into number of chapters. Each chapter in the book opens with a time-saving summary of the principal formulas for the relevant area of physics. As a rule the formulas are given without detailed explanation. Explanatory notes are given in those cases where misunderstandings may arise. The author has used all formulas in the SI system, except in Part six where the Gaussian system has been used. Also the main physical constants and tables are summarized at the end of the book along with the Periodic System of Elements and Table of Elementary Particles also covered in the book. At the beginning of each chapter summary of principal formulas has been given for clarifying relevant... Leer más…
