A comprehensive introduction to physics is provided by this book which devotes many sections to basic physics and applications of fundamental principles. The text treats physics as an experimental science, not as an abstract discipline.
Furthermore, over 50 examples and nearly 300 exercises and problems have been added. This edition uses only SI units and units approved for use with that system.
