- Meriam and Kraige provide the most comprehensive coverage of how to draw free body diagrams. Through text discussion and assignable homework problems students will learn that drawing free body diagrams is the most important skill needed to learn how to solve mechanics problems. Meriam and Kraige teach students the appropriate techniques and then apply them consistently in solutions of mechanics problems. See Article 3/2 in Statics.
- Meriam and Kraige continue to provide the best collection of homework problems available. You have told us that accuracy, realism, applications and variety are important. We've listened! Statics 5/e offers 50% new or revised problems - the high quality problem sets you've come to expect from Meriam/Kraige. Your students will benefit from realistic applications that motivate them to want to know more and develop their problem solving skills.
"I like Meriam/Kraige primarily because of the quality and quantity of examples and problems..." - Reviewer for 5/e
- A tradition of excellence. Since 1952 this text has been a primary source for accuracy, rigor, clarity and a high standard of illustration in the coverage of mechanics theory. We are proud to carry that tradition forward with this timely revision.
- Student accessibility is always an issue. Meriam and Kraige realize that student motivation and understanding is an issue. Extensively rewritten sections, new sample problems, and active voice is sure to help students read, understand and prepare for exams.
- Features all SI units.
