Vector Mechanics for Engineers
Dynamics (9th Edition in SI Units)
Ferdinand P. Beer, E. Russel Johnston, Jr. and Phillip J. Cornwell
ISBN 9780071311083 • MHID 0071311084 • 2010 • Softcover • 732pp
New to This Edition
Thoroughly refreshed problem sets in the ninth edition. 70% of the
problems are updated from the previous edition.
Features
A careful, step-by-step presentation is followed in each lesson of
each chapter, and every chapter starts with a real-life example and an
outline previewing the chapter objectives and lessons. Each lesson is
accompanied by sample problems and Solving Problems On Your Own
boxes that prepare students for the problem sets. Each chapter finishes
with a brief Review Problem set and an assortment of computer and
design problems.
Well-respected sample problems are a signature Beer and Johnston text
feature that allow students to see important key problem types and
with the solution laid out on a single page, are organized to provide
a potent model for student problem solving. Sample problems serve
the dual purpose of amplifying the text and demonstrating the type
of neat and orderly work that students should cultivate in their own
solutions.
