Looking for solutions manual for College physics

[thecichlidpleco]

I need a solutions manual with actually all the answers in it, for college physics 7th edition by serway and faughn. It is probably on cd and here is a isbn number if someone has better places to find it than me, my grade will much appreciate it. 0495188603

Your head came with one built in, it's called your brain. All you have to do is train it a little bit.

Instead of spending time trying to figure out how to not do your homework, do your homework!

yep thanks for all the smart @ss remarks. When the book gives only answers to odd questions and the student solutions manual gives you less than 1/5 of the odds completed, you might want to have another way of doing homework besides banging your head against the wall for some questions, also easy for many of you who are out of college, never took physics or didnt go to college.

You're welcome

So are you looking for a book with all the answers or one with 1/5th of the answers? I'm confused...

[itsthesong]

A solutions manual contains the "worked out" answers to a few selected questions per chapter. It helps students work thru the rest of the problems by being able to see how the answer is arrived at, step by step.


I teach AP Bio, so I am not familiar with this publisher or the series. Check the first several pages of the book. Sometimes they give ordering information on one of those early pages.
You might also want to check with your teacher...if they are anything like me, they'll have a copy kicking around somewhere in their room...
...have you tried entering the ISBN number into an amazon search...when you enter it just make sure you search "ISBN" and not "title"

Best of luck!

Funny, in my college days we had to work out the answers the hard way. Even in physics. The text book had examples of the problems, so there was no real reason to have a book with all the answers to get the homework done.

[thecichlidpleco]

yes, old people you had it so hard, walking up hills both ways, and working in coal mines at age 8, I cannot wait to get wrinkly and complain about how the younger generation has it better.
Also, homework is not graded in this course, it just gives me a leg up on practicing for quizes and exams, so yes I would like a book with all the examples.
-itsthesong, I have checked mutliple sites and only found one with no copies left.

The ISBN number you posted is for the "Instructor's Resource CD".
Only an instructor can get this type of product...for obvious reasons...

I guess it's OK to cheat on a course towards a degree that will get him nowhere. Sounds like a self-fulfilling prophecy at work.

It's never okay to cheat.
But the student solutions manual have the step by step worked out answers to a couple of problems a section.
That way you can go thru those couple problems and see how they were solved. Then, in theory, you should be able to solve the rest.

However, I have come to find he isn't looking for the "student" version with a couple answers, rather he is looking for the instructor version with ALL the answers.

Be warned! You can be kicked out of school for cheating this way. When I was a college professor (in a different life), I saw this happen. Don't think that a professor won't kick you out for cheating.

You're just a great big ole bowl of warm fuzzies aren't ya cichlidpleco?

Next time you ask people to help you, IMPHO you may want read this book first....

[thecichlidpleco]

Already stating, for all the people who are unable to read, there is no homework grade in the class, it simply helps with suggested problems for preparing for exams and quizing.
also I am not the one originally came on here with the hostility. Thanks for all the eye-opening opinions.

This is what happens when I skim...I miss VERY important information...

It's the new math, Bill! But we're too old to ever understand it!

It's so new that somehow it seems that I was walking uphill both ways. Not sure how that works, I always thought after I go to the top that I would then have to walk downhill to get back

You're probably also too old to understand why people fight in hockey games.

[pnosko]

The way that works, you start walking to school at 7ish, from a point on the sphere (visualize it at that "7am" point on a circle), going uphill. As you learn all day, the earth is rotating, and by the time you get out, the point has rotated to about 3pm. So now to get back home, you have to go uphill again.

I'm glad to be at your assistance.

Nah, even when I was kid I watched Hockey whenever I wanted to watch a fighting match

Ahh, I see. Thanks Pete. Now I know I shouldn't have been walking in straight lines from point A to point B
