This book is an outgrowth of over twenty-five years of teaching college physics, and it has been used in the classroom in manu script form for some of them. Because it is written for students, it contains a great many of the intermediate steps that are often left out of the derivations and illustrative problem solutions in many traditional college physics textbooks. Students new to physics often find it difficult to follow derivations when the in termediate steps are left out. In addition, the units of measure ment are carried along, step by step, in the equations to make it easier for students to understand. The book does not require calculus; the only prerequisites are high school algebra and trig onometry. In fact, a short review of trigonometry is given in chapter 2, before the discussion of the components of a vector. Ushbu kitob yigirma besh yildan ortiq kollej fizikasini o'qitishning natijasi bo'lib, ulardan ba'zilari uchun darsda qo'lyozma shaklida ishlatilgan. U talabalar uchun yozilganligi sababli, u ko'plab oraliq bosqichlarni o'z ichiga oladi, ular ko'pincha an'anaviy kollej fizika darsliklarida hosilalardan va illyustrativ muammolarni hal qilishdan tashqarida qoladi. Fizikani yangi boshlagan talabalar ko'pincha oraliq bosqichlar qoldirilsa, hosilalarni kuzatish qiyin. Bundan tashqari, o‘lchov birliklari o‘quvchilarga tushunarli bo‘lishi uchun tenglamalarda bosqichma-bosqich olib boriladi. Kitob hisobni talab qilmaydi; yagona shart - o'rta maktab algebrasi va trig onometriya. Aslida, trigonometriyaning qisqacha sharhi vektor komponentlarini muhokama qilishdan oldin 2-bobda berilgan.
