Halliday Resnick and Krane answer key for self study

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the search for an answer key for the multiple choice questions and conceptual questions in Halliday Resnick and Krane's 5th edition physics textbook. Participants express their needs for resources to aid in self-study as they prepare for graduate school.

Discussion Character

  • Homework-related
  • Meta-discussion

Main Points Raised

  • One participant is looking for an answer key to quickly verify answers for multiple choice and conceptual questions in the textbook, as they already possess the instructor's solutions manual which does not include these answers.
  • Another participant suggests downloading the latest edition of the textbook that includes a solution manual, implying that the current edition may be more beneficial.
  • A third participant expresses frustration at the perceived snideness of the previous response, clarifying that they have already searched for the answer key and are specifically looking for supplementary materials.
  • Another participant inquires if anyone has successfully obtained the answer manual for the multiple choice and questions, indicating a shared interest in the resource.
  • A participant reminds others that providing solution manuals is not permitted on the forum, highlighting the forum's rules regarding resource sharing.
  • Another participant comments on the use of informal language, suggesting a concern for communication standards within the discussion.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants generally agree on the need for an answer key for the textbook, but there is no consensus on its availability or how to obtain it. Disagreement arises regarding the appropriateness of sharing solution manuals and the tone of responses.

Contextual Notes

The discussion is limited by the forum's rules against sharing solution manuals, which affects the ability of participants to find the resources they seek. Additionally, the focus on an older edition of the textbook may restrict the availability of supplementary materials.

Hello,

I'll be starting grad school soon after taking two years off since undergrad. As a review, I'd like to go through all of Halliday Resnick and Krane's 5e "physics," doing as many problems, questions, exercises, and multiple choices as I can. Does anyone know where I could find an answer key for the multiple choice and questions (I have the instructors solutions manual but it only has exercises and problems)? Since most of them are so elementary it doesn't make much sense for me to verify each one individually; I'd like to just go through the entire book in a few days and check my answers quickly to make sure my time off didn't warp my understanding of basic physics.

Thanks in advance for any help you might be able to provide.

Its a very old edition, the solution manual is about 21 MB. I suggest you download the latest edition with included solution manual. I can't post the link here as it is illegal to umm..

If you googled it you would've found it by now, which really should be the warning to anyone who tries to start a new thread
 
Thanks for your response. I have googled, of course, and as I said, I already have the solutions manual. My point (which I think I stated pretty clearly, so I don't really understand your snideness) was that the instructors solutions manual doesn't include answers to the "multiple choice" or "questions," which is why I'm trying to figure out if there exists some kind of supplementary answer-key type document. That way I could go through those conceptual questions very quickly which I think would be more beneficial to making sure I've still got all my facts straight than only doing the problems, many of which are too elementary/tedious. The fact that it is an older, (in my opinion) standard edition I thought would make it easier to find such a key.
 
hi lonetomato,

were u able to get the answer manual to multiple choice and questions in physics, 5th edition?
please let me know becoz even i am in search f it
 
Providing solution manuals is not allowed on this forum.
