Introduction to Physics: Books for Non-Calculus Learners

In summary, the best books for an introduction to physics without calculus would be "Physics for Scientists and Engineers" by P. A. Tipler and G. Mosca, or "Elementary Physics" from a few decades ago. If you want to learn physics properly you will need calculus soon or later.

The typical pathway is like this with some variation depending on what and how the institution offers:
  1. Basic General Arithmetic and Mathematics
  2. Introductory Algebra
  3. Geometry (Euclidean, with proofs)
  4. Intermediate Algebra
  5. Trigonometry
  6. College Algebra or College Algebra & Trigonometry(Pre-Calculus)
  7. Calculus & Analytic Geometry 1 (mostly differentiation)
  8. Calculus & Analytic Geometry 2 (mostly integration, maybe topics for Sequences & Series)
  9. Calculs & Analytic Geometry 3 (Multivariable or Intermediate Calculus)
  10. Some further course or more combining Linear Algebra and Differential Equations
The numbers 2 through 6 are what you would do in high school. Those can also be done in a community college depending on the region of the world that you live.

What does this mean?
@Adesh asked you a legitimate question, and your reply is gibberish.
