For everyone, is it at all possible for you to compare these texts to the level of Calculus BC? This is because I have fairly limited exposure so I am unaware of most things beyond the BC curriculum. So how are the texts relative to AP coursework?

Hi, thanks for the reply The feynman lectures were suppose to basically be an addition to what i have already learned, not necessarily replacement. This is because freshman lvl material turned out simple enough that I thought I would now just do FL first and then move on to something that's...

also, I just realized the difference between the two different multivariable calc courses offered. So, thanks, i think I get it now.

Thanks for the reply. This should help. http://catalog.utexas.edu/undergraduate/natural-sciences/courses/mathematics/

well, there is a vector calculus course. but also a Multi variable calculus course. (but now you mention it, i think they cover the same stuff). In a different university's course sequence, they were separate courses. So i assumed that they could be treated as such.

I am currently Reviewing calculus. I am using the textbook by Briggs and Cochran, just to make sure I have solid grounding. Spivak, from what I've read, is too "mathy" while I am mostly interested in math I can apply to physics. Mainly because I am not interested in abstract material. Is my...

Hi, I recently graduated from high school and am planning on taking studying physics in college(im taking a gap year). Until them, I am trying to spend whatever free time I might get, studying and basically getting better at physics. Here is my background, I have taken math up to Calculus...

Ok, I have a book that I want to study. It's called university physics with modern physics 13th edition. For me to understand everything in this book, what math do I need?. I don't want to start studying and not know the necessary math later down the line. Here is a list if math I can think...

ok. so here is the plan. there is a class i want to take. but before i can take that class i need/want to learn bunch of stuff. The classes has bunch of pre-requisite classes that i want to learn. I want to learn them efficiently(dont confuse this with me rushing, if it takes time, so be it but...

what is the best textbook to learn physics. i need to learn physics really good(i want to test out usa physics olymipad, and i really want to perform well). so really looking for a book that is indepth and teaches things to a advanced leve.. if there is no such one book, and you want to suggest...

lol, maybe, but dude, he has probably seen a lot of kinds in his life that are like you, so maybe not. unless, you are somekind of genius and he is blown away, then he might be jealous. but otherwise, you have nothing that he could be jealous of. you just want to be a physicist, (actually, no...

just how effecient is the internal combustion engine. please tell me(any/all you know/ or can find online), efficency of an average engine, best achieved ever effecincey(ideal scenario), and the maximum theoretical efficency.. i am talking about energy put in vs the amount that is useable.(by...

ok, the main thing i am looking at is aircraft propulsion. so, i am looking for amount work done, for the energy. for example, i saw somewhere, a rc aircraft(i do realize there is a range) thrust to the energy used was around 18 percent when using this one specific propeller. im looking for...

engines like jet engines. ok, for example, a electric motor powering a propeller isn't that efficient. the motor itself my have some efficency, then there is the propeller, i am looking at the net efficiency of power put in vs total thrust. (dont put aircraft, or other veihcle or anything into...

im looking for engines that are known for being extremely high effiency. im not just talking about high efficency consumer engines, but highest records, etc also, consumer level is nice as well, but please tell me that they are consumer level if you do list them. please list electric...
