Vector Mechanics for Engineers

This textbook guides beginning engineering students through statics and dynamics, the two branches of mechanics that study forces acting on bodies at rest and in motion. Written by Beer and Johnston, it has been used for nearly four decades and is organized around vector methods. The New Media edition pairs the text with modern software and multimedia tools that support the explanations.

The package also includes a newly written problems supplement, giving students additional practice beyond the core exercises. Readers will find the components described in the New to this Edition section of the book.
