Purpose: The aim of this research was content analysis of tenth grade physics textbook in the field of mathematics and physics using Merrill’s component display theory.Methodology: The research method was documentary and was done based on content analysis which uses both quantitative and qualitative analysis, and its statistical society was tenth grade physics textbook . Check list method was used to collect the corresponding data.Findings: Our results showed that: in presenting the content the enough attention has been devoted to the different types of contents (facts, concepts, rules and presedure), but the find-performance has not been evaluated enough and the textbook doesn’t contain any inquisitory generality. The authors has been used the most of the primary presentations, except inquisitory generality, and enhance the structural contents using the secondary presentations.Conclusion: Comparing our results with the purposes of the textbook showed that the main criticism is that has not utilize inquisitory generality and has not evaluated the find-performance. This procedure was unlike the is unlike the competencies, mentioned in its introduction, which must be gained by the student.
