For example, they completely ignored to describe major concepts such as

inelastic collision
elastic collision
center of mass
moment of inertia

and MORE


Did I get a lemon or did this chapter really did skip on these concepts?

😕😕😕
 
Maybe they're in a different chapter

Inelastic and elastic collisions are shown on page 176, discussed on page 184, asked about on page 185, and Passages I3, II3, II5, and II6 all involve inelastic and elactic collisions.

Center of mass is included in many descriptions in the first chapter, first appearing in the third sentence of the book (page 5, in the translational motion section).

Moment of inertia is found in chapter 2 in the circular motion section. You'll find it in pssages in the second phase of chapter 2 as well as some free standing questions.

Do i have older edition? I have the one with 2009 copy right written on the very front page. Pages do not match up for me.

Yep, you have the older book. What color cover do you have? The latest one came out in the regular print in November 2010, although it was used in the classroom course since January 2010 (with various colored covers, depending on location).

In the version you have, they counted on students getting exposed to many concepts in the practice passages more so than the reading.

do the phases and you will be more than fine with all the concepts!

Blue physics cover.
