Physics 112 Spring 2014 Textbook Information

You will need three items for this course:
  1. The main text is College Physics: A Strategic Approach Technology Update Plus MasteringPhysics with eText -- Access Card Package, 2/E, by Randall D. Knight, Brian Jones, and Stuart Field. This includes an online homework component MasteringPhysics. You can purchase this as a single package at the bookstore.

    If you are considering buying a used book or a book from another source, be aware that you still will need to buy the on-line part. You can buy that directly from MasteringPhysics.

    You will likely find a confusing array of ISBN numbers that refer to different packagings of the text with various optional components. The only required parts are the text itself and the on-line homework component. The ISBN number we are using is:

    At the publisher's website, there are a variety of different packages available, including both digital and loose-leaf unbound versions.

  2. You will also need the Physics 112 Laboratory Manual, available in the bookstore.
  3. Finally, you will need a bound laboratory notebook. A suitable notebook will also be available in the bookstore, but you may wish to wait until the first week of class to purchase that. (You will work in pairs in lab. Each lab pair will be required to have a bound notebook. We will form lab pairs in the first week of class.)
