G2006 Posted June 19, 2005 Report Posted June 19, 2005 HiIm knew here and i have a few questions but before i post them i would like to expand my knowlage a bit further first so i dont sound like a complete idiot.So does anyboday know any good books or websites explaining mainly basic physics or theorytical physics for beginears.Basically just physics for beginears.thanks all Quote
gskeshavan Posted June 19, 2005 Report Posted June 19, 2005 The Basics of Physics must be first learnt ni Schools or Colleges so that your Basics are clear and you are aware of the things and facts in Physics. You can also do your basics throught the Internet but understanding them will be really difficult. You can check this site where there are a good set of questions for Intermediate Scientists.http://siliguriinfoline.com THANK YOU!!!! Quote
G2006 Posted June 19, 2005 Author Report Posted June 19, 2005 HiIm in year nine nearly in year 10 and we still have not really done much physics and the physics lessons we have done i already know.I just wanted something which covers everything for beginears, im going to cheak that site out now.Thanks Quote
gskeshavan Posted June 19, 2005 Report Posted June 19, 2005 Since you are in Year 10 I think you will have to have a gud Physics Knowledge.All you hav to do to hav a Gud Physics Knowledge is to hav everyday Practice in Physics. Here is a Site that will giv you some Definitions:http://physics.webplasma.com/physicstoc.html THANK YOU!!! Quote
C1ay Posted June 19, 2005 Report Posted June 19, 2005 You can check this site where there are a good set of questions for Intermediate Scientists.http://siliguriinfoline.comLooks like some kind of spam to me. Where are these questions you speak of? Quote
gskeshavan Posted June 19, 2005 Report Posted June 19, 2005 Well C1ay, THatz not a Spam. Perhaps you hav to browse that page in order for you to see the questions. If you cannot find the link I will giv it to you and you can go and check it. http://www.siliguriinfoline.com/cbse-X/science/cbse_X_science_2001IIIa.htm These are the 10th Grade All India Examination Question Papers!!! Hope you hav a good time. Thank You!!! Quote

I'm sure you can google Calculus or Vector Calculus to learn some of what'll need. With some basic calc under your belt, I'd suggest "An Introduction to Mechanics" by Kleppner and Kolenkov. Covers basic mechanics very nicely, starting with Newton's laws through to central force motion (gravity and the solar system) and special relativity. For electrical stuff, I'd recommend Electricity and Magnetism, by Purcell, one of the best intro courses out there. For easier intro texts (less calculus) try University Physics by Young and Freedman. Other interesting intro books include The Feynman Lectures on Physics. -Will Quote

At a glance it looks like a matchmaker site. I'm sure this link is better for G anythow. Now he won't have to go looking for the questions. Thanks... Quote
UncleAl Posted June 21, 2005 Report Posted June 21, 2005 Physics without calculus is only descriptive. If you are serious about pursuing an endeavor, you need a filled toolbox and the skills to use its contents. http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/hframe.htmloverview of all physicshttp://www.motionmountain.netoverview of all physicshttp://www.mat.univie.ac.at/~neum/physics-faq.txttheoretical physics FAQ Quote
G2006 Posted June 23, 2005 Author Report Posted June 23, 2005 Thanks for them they are really extremely helpful im just strating to read the first of many thousand of pages!!Thanks again Quote
rockytriton Posted June 24, 2005 Report Posted June 24, 2005 This guy wrote a bunch of physics books and gives them away free in PDF form. He wrote some for non-engineers and one for engineers: http://www.lightandmatter.com Quote
Queztacotl Posted July 14, 2005 Report Posted July 14, 2005 I know a website called "http://motionmountain.dse.nl/welcome.html", where you can download a book over 1000 pages on Physics and it's completely free. Quote
