What do iPods, GPS devices, airport metal detectors, LCD displays, and PET scans have to do with physics? The Eighth Edition of INQUIRY INTO PHYSICS answers these questions and many others, helping you understand fundamental concepts using a unique inquiry-based approach. The text integrates modern applications of physics such as plasma TVs and radar "guns" to demonstrate the relevance of physics in daily life.
