More student friendly than ever, the text includes new context-rich exercises, Think-Pair-Share problems, MCAT-style passage problems and sound educational pedagogy. The unified art program and detailed worked examples compliment the concise language and meticulous instruction for which Raymond A. Serway and John W. Jewett Jr. are known. In addition, WebAssign--the world's easiest to use homework system--equips you with the definitive solution to your homework and assessment needs to maximize your course\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat's New\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eINTEGRATIVE APPROACH. Today's students begin a problem by Googling to find the right equation or explanation of the relevant concept. This behavior has eroded the value attributed to online homework, exemplified by the expanding gap between online homework and exam scores. The 10th edition's integrative approach to course materials seamlessly matches curated content to the learning environment for which it was intended--from in-class group problem solving to optimized, online homework that utilizes targeted feedback.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNEW OPTIMIZED ONLINE HOMEWORK. With contextual randomizations and answer-dependent student remediation for every problem, students don't need to leave WebAssign to get help when they're stuck--each problem has feedback that addresses the misconception a student made to reach the wrong answer. Every optimized problem features comprehensive written solutions, and many have supporting video solutions. As optimized problems are not in print, the content is protected from \"solution providers\" and will be augmented every year with updates to the targeted feedback based on actual student answers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNEW CONTEXT-RICH PROBLEMS. Helping students make a personal connection, problems always talk in terms of \"you\" and have a real-world connection instead of discussing blocks on planes or balls on strings. Structured like a short story, they may not always explicitly identify the variable that needs to be evaluated. Context-rich problems may relate to the opening story line of the chapter, involve \"expert witness\" scenarios and allow students to go beyond mathematical manipulation by designing an argument based on mathematical results--or ask for decisions to be made in real situations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNEW WHAT IF? PROBLEM EXTENSIONS. The online-only problems set for each chapter in WebAssign contains 6 new What If? extensions to existing problems. What If? extensions expand students' understanding of physics concepts beyond the simple act of arriving at a numerical result.\u003cbr\u003ePRE-LECTURE EXPLORATIONS. Available in WebAssign, Pre-Lecture Explorations combine Active Figures with conceptual and analytical questions that guide students to a deeper understanding and help promote a robust physical intuition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eINTERACTIVE VIDEO VIGNETTES. Available in WebAssign, Interactive Video Vignette questions encourage students to address their alternate conceptions outside the classroom. Online video analysis and interactive individual tutorials address learning difficulties identified by PER (Physics Education Research).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNEW CHAPTER 16 \"WAVE MOTION.\" All the fundamental material on traveling mechanical waves on strings and sound waves through materials is now presented in one chapter. This allows for more close comparisons between the features of the two types of waves that are similar, such as derivations of the speed of the wave. The section on reflection and transmission of waves--details that are not necessary in a chapter on traveling waves--was moved to Chapter 17, \"Superposition and Standing Waves,\" where it fits more naturally in a discussion of the effects of boundary conditions on waves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eREORGANIZED CHAPTER 22, \"ELECTRIC FIELDS.\" The material on continuous distribution of charge was moved from Chapter 22 to Chapter 23, providing a chapter that is a more gradual introduction for students into the new and challenging topic of electricity. The chapter now involves only topics related to electric fields due to point charges and uniform electric fields due to parallel plates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eREORGANIZED CHAPTER 23, \"CONTINUOUS CHARGE DISTRIBUTIONS AND GAUSS'S LAW.\" Adding to the analysis of electric fields due to continuous charge distributions using Gauss's law, Chapter 23 now also includes material on continuous distribution of charge--resulting in an entire chapter based on the analysis of fields from continuous charge distributions, using two techniques: integration and Gauss's law.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eREORGANIZED CHAPTER 24, \"ELECTRIC POTENTIAL.\" Now Chapter 24 includes discussions of all four properties of isolated charged conductors--meaning students learn all the necessary basic material before the discussion of properties of isolated charged conductors. In addition, all four properties can be argued from basic principles together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNEW CHAPTER 43, \"NUCLEAR PHYSICS.\" The previous edition's chapters on Nuclear Structure and Applications of Nuclear Physics have been combined into an all-new Chapter 43, enabling students to study all the material on nuclear physics together. As a result, the text's final five chapters each cover focused applications of the fundamental principles studied before: Chapter 40, \"Quantum Mechanics,\" Chapter 41, \"Atomic Physics,\" Chapter 42, \"Molecules and Solids,\" Chapter 43, \"Nuclear Physics\" and Chapter 44, \"Particle Physics.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNEW STORYLINE APPROACH. Each chapter now opens with a new section that provides a continuous storyline through the whole book of \"you\" as an inquisitive physics student observing and analyzing phenomena seen in everyday life. In many chapters, the storyline involves measurements made with a smartphone, observations of YouTube videos or investigations on the Internet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNEW CHAPTER-OPENING CONNECTIONS. The start of each chapter also features a \"Connections\" section that shows how the material in the chapter connects to previously studied material and to future material. The \"Connections\" section provides a \"big picture\" of the concepts, explains why this chapter is placed in this particular location relative to the other chapters and shows how the structure of physics builds on previous material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"ceng-productCollapsibleSection_header is-open\" data-type=\"toggle\" data-group=\"Section Heading\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"ceng-productCollapsibleSection_body\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"ceng-productFeatures\"\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"ceng-productFeatures_featureList ceng-productFeatures_featureList--columns\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePROBLEM SOLVING STRATEGY. Outlined early in the text, a General Problem Solving Strategy provides a series of steps similar to those professional physicists use. This problem-solving strategy is revisited in each Worked Example, so students approach problems consistently, developing stronger skills. Providing further reinforcement, Problem-Solving Strategy boxes offer additional tips for tackling specific types of situations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWORKED EXAMPLES. A signature feature of the text, Worked Examples are presented in a visually appealing two-column format, providing conceptual explanations next to the math for every step. The examples follow the authors' proven General Problem Solving Strategy to reinforce good habits. About one-third of the worked examples include \"What If?\" extensions that further reinforce conceptual understanding. Solutions are presented symbolically as much as possible with numbers substituted in at the last possible moment to help students think symbolically when they solve problems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHALLMARK PROBLEM SETS. An extensive set of problems is included at the end of each chapter, and answers to odd-numbered problems are provided at the end of the book. Organized by chapter sections, problems \"platform\" students to higher-order thinking by presenting all the straightforward (black) problems in the section first, followed by intermediate (blue) problems. The \"Additional Problems\" section contains problems that span more than one section of the chapter, and the \"Challenging Problems\" section gathers the chapter's toughest problems in one place.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Scorpio Bookstore","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":43670235742267,"sku":"Y2URWR-6330","price":209.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0369\/1895\/1995\/files\/1725379620185E54PHI2BBZ03CGGLVQJC_cccf5352-6084-4c57-8c09-e7b65c52dee7.jpg?v=1785348224","url":"https:\/\/www.scorpiobookstore.com\/products\/pre-order-approx-4-6-business-days-physics-for-scientists-and-engineers-with-modern-physics-10th-edition-by-raymond-a-serway-9781337553292-zz-51074","provider":"Scorpio Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
