About this ebook

Fundamentals of Physics (Extended, 10th Edition)" is a premier, calculus-based physics textbook authored by David Halliday, Robert Resnick, and Jearl Walker. Published by John Wiley & Sons in 2013, this specific version spanning 44 chapters covers classical mechanics, thermodynamics, electromagnetism, optics, and an extended introduction to modern quantum physics and cosmology. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

Core Book Overview

Structure & Topic Coverage

The Extended Edition is divided into five primary sections covering the foundation of physics curriculum: [1]

1. Mechanics (Chapters 1–17)

Measurement, motion in 1D, 2D, and 3D.
Newton’s Laws of Motion, kinetic energy, work, and potential energy.
Collisions, center of mass, rotation, and rolling.
Equilibrium, elasticity, gravitation, fluids, oscillations, and mechanical waves. [1]

2. Thermodynamics (Chapters 18–20)

Temperature, heat, and the First Law of Thermodynamics.
The Kinetic Theory of Gases.
Entropy and the Second Law of Thermodynamics.

3. Electricity & Magnetism (Chapters 21–32)

Coulomb’s Law, electric fields, and Gauss’ Law.
Electric potential, capacitance, current, and resistance.
Magnetic fields, induction, alternating current, and Maxwell’s Equations. [, 2]

4. Optics (Chapters 33–36)

Electromagnetic waves and light propagation.
Images, interference, and diffraction.

5. Modern Physics (Chapters 37–44)

Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity.
Photons, matter waves, and the Schrödinger Equation.
Atomic structures, nuclear physics, and cosmology. [1, 2]

Key Features of the 10th Edition

Concept Modules: Restructured into shorter, concept-focused modules so students can study bite-sized pieces.
Learning Objectives: Every module opens with a distinct list of target skills.
Sample Problems: Includes explicit, step-by-step quantitative problem-solving strategies and interactive vector questions.
Rewritten Material: Challenging sections like Gauss' Law and Electric Potential were entirely rewritten by Jearl Walker for enhanced conceptual clarity. [, 2, 3, 4]
