Description

This groundbreaking new text combines the second and third semesters of calculus with the first and second semesters of calculus-based physics. Used successfully at the authors' school in a two-semester course, the text provides full integration of the math and physics. Through text and problems, the authors carefully develop the calculus so that it can be used in many physical applications. In turn, the physics provides examples for the development of the calculus concepts. As a result, students gain a full understanding of calculus and its relevance to physics.
