Applied Physics, 11/e presents clear, to-the-point, topical coverage of basic physics applied to industrial and technical fields. Throughout the text, emphasis is placed on teaching students to use a consistent problem-solving methodology. A wealth of real-world applications are presented, motivating students by teaching physics concepts in context. Updated with new color photos, clarifications, and enhancements, the Eleventh Edition also features sections on physics-related careers and new technologies to engage readers in the material.
New in the Eleventh Edition:
- Helps students make real-world connections.
- New Technologiesprovides up-to-date examples of how physics concepts in the chapter are being utilized in cutting-edge research and products. (Ex. Sections 5.4, 7.2, 9.1, 11.3, 17.13, 18.1, 21.9)
- Physics on the Job highlights real-world physics-related careers and provides information about the necessary certifications to establish a career in that field. (Ex. After Sections 1.8, 2.3, 6.1, 8.5, 10.8, 13.5, 17.9, 19.2, 20.2, 23.10)
- Appeals to all learners.
- UPDATED: A four-color format with numerous four-color drawings, diagrams, and photographs is used to illustrate the applications of physics in the real world and improve student interest and comprehension.One hundred new color photos and redrawn 4-color art helps illustrate topics that can be hard to comprehend from reading alone.

Index
- Teaches students to use a proven, effective problem-solving methodology.
- A consistent problem-solving method trains students to make a sketch, identify the data elements, select the appropriate equation, solve for the unknown quantity, and substitute the data in the working equation. An icon that outlines the method is placed in the margin of most problem sets as a reminder to students.
- Detailed, well-illustrated examples support student understanding of skills and concepts.
- Extensive problem sets assist student learning by providing ample opportunity for practice.
- Worked examples illustrate basic concepts and problems.
- Applied Concepts problems at the end of chapters challenge students to further develop their problem-solving skills in real-life physics applications.
- Helps students make real-world connections.
- NEW: New Technologiesprovides up-to-date examples of how physics concepts in the chapter are being utilized in cutting-edge research and products. (Ex. Sections 5.4, 7.2, 9.1, 11.3, 17.13, 18.1, 21.9)
