Want a Book On Physics Problems

In summary, the conversation discusses different resources for solving problems in physics, specifically mechanics, waves, oscillations, heat, and thermodynamics. The speakers mention using Irodov's Problems In Physics and recommend checking out problem sets accompanying Feynman's series, "Major American Universities PhD qualifying questions and solutions," "Problems and Solutions on electromagnetism," and REA's problems solvers. They also suggest using old Russian books by Krotov and Sena, which may be difficult to find in stores.

On Mechanics,Waves,Oscillations,Heat and Thermo etc etc.

I have been doing Problems In Physics by Irodov.

But i want some more.

Check out the problem sets accompanying Feynman's series
there ir a series of solved problems, called "Major American Unioversities PhD qualifying questions and solutions" that are pretty good. I have one called "Problems and Solutions on electromagnetism"
and REA's problems solvers

Use Krotov, Sena. Both are old Russian books...

I understand the importance of continuously expanding our knowledge and skills in our field. It is great to hear that you have already been working on problems in physics through Irodov's book. However, if you are looking for more resources to further enhance your understanding of mechanics, waves, oscillations, heat, and thermodynamics, I would suggest exploring other textbooks and problem-solving books in these specific areas. Additionally, you can also consider attending workshops or seminars, joining online communities or forums, and collaborating with fellow scientists to exchange ideas and solve challenging problems together. Continuous learning and practice are crucial in mastering any subject, and I am confident that with dedication and determination, you will find the additional resources you need to excel in these areas of physics.
