Physics: Books

This book contains 500 physics problems and solutions in common college and university undergraduate topics. These topics are presented in three chapters: mechanics, electricity and magnetism, and matter and waves.

This book will help strengthen your ability to apply the laws of physics to practical situations and problems that yield more easily to intuitive insight than to complex mathematics. These problems, chosen almost exclusively from classical (non-quantum) physics, are posed in accessible nontechnical language and require you to select the right framework in which to analyze the situation.

Like its predecessor, this book is aimed at strengthening your grasp of the laws of physics by applying them to situations that are practical, and to problems that yield more easily to intuitive insight than to brute-force methods and complex mathematics.
