The Manga Guide to Physics teaches physics in an innovative way by joining real Japanese-style manga with serious and practical instruction. With extended explanations and examples to help you learn, this informative and charming guide will have you up to speed on the physics of motion in no time.

Megumi is an all-star athlete, but she's a failure when it comes to physics class. And she can't concentrate on her tennis matches when she's worried about the questions she missed on the big test! Luckily for her, she befriends Ryota, a patient physics geek who uses real-world examples to help her understand classical mechanics-and improve her tennis game in the process!

You'll also learn how to:

• Apply Newton's three laws of motion to real-life problems
• Determine how objects will move after a collision
• Draw vector diagrams and simplify complex problems using trigonometry
• Calculate how an object's kinetic energy changes as its potential energy increases

If you're mystified by the basics of physics or you just need a refresher, The Manga Guide to Physics will get you up to speed in a lively, quirky, and practical way.
