Written for the full year or three term Calculus-based University Physics course for science and engineering majors, the publication of the first edition of Physics in 1960 launched the modern era of Physics textbooks. It was a new paradigm at the time and continues to be the dominant model for all texts. Physics is the most realistic option for schools looking to teach a more demanding course. The entirety of Volume 2 of the 5th edition has been edited to clarify conceptual development in light of recent findings of physics education research. End-of-chapter problem sets are thoroughly over-hauled, new problems are added, outdated references are deleted, and new short-answer conceptual questions are added.… (more)

These two volumes were used for, I think, six of my undergraduate physics courses. They ended up dog-eared and generally unloved. ( )

Volume 2 de um dos livros mais utilizados para o ensino de física no Ensino Superior na área de exatas.
A maior parte dos textos de abertura dos capítulos (exemplos de física aplicada que têm por objetivo despertar o interesse do leitor pelo assunto que será discutido no capítulo) é nova e foi extraída de artigos científicos em vários campos de pesquisa.
Centenas de problemas no final dos capítulos foram reformulados para tornar mais claros tanto os enunciados como as respostas. Os Problemas estão agrupados por seções e possuem uma indicação do grau de dificuldade.

Volume 2:
Cap 12. Equilíbrio e elasticidade.
Cap 13. Gravitação
Cap 14. Fluidos.
Cap 15. Oscilações
Cap 16. Ondas 1
Cap 17. Ondas 2
Cap 18. Temperatura, Calor e a Primeira lei da termodinâmica.
Cap 19. A teoria cinética dos gases.
Cap 20. Entropia e a Segunda lei da termodinâmica.
