Periodic Motion -- Chapter 15. Mechanical Waves -- Chapter 16. Sound and Hearing -- Chapter 17. Temperature and Heat -- Chapter 18. Thermal Properties of Matter -- Chapter 19. The First Law of Thermodynamics -- Chapter 20. The Second Law of Thermodynamics -- Chapter 21. Electric Charge and Electric Field -- Chapter 22. Gauss's Law -- Chapter 23. Electric Potential -- Chapter 24. Capacitance and Dielectrics -- Chapter 25. Current, Resistance, and Electromotive Force -- Chapter 26. Direct-Current Circuits -- Chapter 27. Magnetic Field and Magnetic Forces -- Chapter 28. Sources of Magnetic Field -- Chapter 29. Electromagnetic Induction -- Chapter 30. Inductance -- Chapter 31. Alternating Current -- Chapter 32. Electromagnetic Waves -- Chapter 33. The Nature and Propagation of Light -- Chapter 34. Geometric Optics and Optical Instruments -- Chapter 35. Interference -- Chapter 36. Diffraction -- Chapter 37. Relativity -- Chapter 38. Photons: Light Waves Behaving as Particles --Chapter 39. Particles Behaving as Waves -- Chapter 40. Quantum Mechanics -- Chapter 41. Atomic Structure -- Chapter 42. Molecules and Condensed Matter -- Chapter 43. Nuclear Physics -- Chapter 44. Particle Physics and Cosmology .
It was revolutionary among calculus-based physics textbook in it emphasis on the fundamental principles of physics and how to apply them. The success of University Physics with generation of several million student and educators around the world is the testaments to the merit of this approach, and to the many innovations it has introduced subsequently.
