Physics, 12th Edition offers university students a clear introduction to core physical laws and quantitative analytical methods. Authors John D. Cutnell, Kenneth W. Johnson, David Young, and Shane Stadler structure this 1,120-page textbook to guide introductory physics classes through mathematical reasoning and practical applications.
Core thematic arcs track physical phenomena from classical mechanics to modern physics. Initial units establish principles of one-dimensional and two-dimensional kinematics, Newton's laws of motion, work, energy, impulse, momentum, and fluid dynamics. Subsequent chapters investigate temperature, heat transfer, thermodynamics, simple harmonic motion, waves, and acoustic interference. The final sections examine electric circuits, magnetic forces, electromagnetic induction, optics, and special relativity.
To assist with self-guided practice, the edition integrates more than 250 author-narrated animated lecture videos. This digital resource gives college students clear instructional support across introductory physics sequences, combining conceptual explanations with quantitative analysis.
