For nearly half a century, this widely acclaimed
book has presented the fundamental concepts of DC electricity and
magnetism in a straightforward, practical manner. The 7th Edition
retains the distinguishing features that are the cornerstone of this
winning book, including logically organized content that progresses from
basic principles to more complex concepts. Enhancements include updated
drawings and photographs that better assist readers in understanding
such essential concepts as how to distinguish between digital and analog
meters, and solid state control for DC motors. 528 pp.
Features:
units related to numerical concepts, electrical measurements, and
scientific notation have been augmented during the revision process for an
enhanced learning experience
new formulas for voltage dividers and current dividers have been added,
along with step-by-step instructions on how they can be applied to a circuit
a chapter on solving DC networks includes easily understood solutions of
the loop current method, superposition technique, Thevenin's Theorem, and
Norton's Theorem
achievement reviews at the end of each chapter offer a variety of practice
problems, all of which have been field tested
while DC concepts are conveyed in a practical, non-mathematical fashion,
important math concepts are explained step-by-step when necessary
