Summary: Physics is intended for a two-seminar college course in introductory physics using algebra and trigonometry. Our main goal in writing this book are: • to present the basic concepts of physics that students need to know for later courses and future careers. • to emphasize that physics is a tool for understanding the real world, and • to teach transferable problem-solving skills that students can use throughout their lives. We have kept these goals in mind while developing the main themes of the book.
