    Self study curriculum for physics and math?

    I looked at MIT OpenCourseWare and I think i'll follow that. But what do I do for exercises and practice problems? Part of the assignments use problems from different textbooks.

    Self study curriculum for physics and math?

    Well, I am sort of hoping to cover undergraduate math and physics before school ends. Maybe not in-depth but a general understanding of the concepts and work. Though I guess that still sounds a bit crazy?

    Self study curriculum for physics and math?

    Did I say something wrong? Maybe I phrased it wrong. I want to use the most of my time at school for learning math and physics. I also want to eventually learn about and understand most, if not all major topics in math and physics.

    Self study curriculum for physics and math?

    I was wondering if there's some kind of curriculum I could follow to self-learn undergraduate physics and math. I'm a senior in high school, I took Pre-AP physics last year and am taking AP Physics this year. I also took a computer science class and am taking another one this year. I...

    Reasons why lightspeed travel is impossible

    Okay, so then requiring an infinite amount of time is another reason for why an object with rest mass can't travel at or faster than the speed of light right? I looked around some and I haven't seen that supplied as a reason. Does anyone know why it isn't normally suppplied as a reason? Thanks...

    Reasons why lightspeed travel is impossible

    So, as something with rest mass gets closer to the speed of light, it gains more mass, making it require greater force to accelerate it making it gain even more mass and so on. So the reason we use to say nothing can travel at or faster than light is because it gains more mass, and requires more...

    Relativistic mass affect weight of an object?

    For example, a top spinning near the speed of light, would the relativistic mass be affected by gravity and therefore increase the weight of the object? If it does, then are the highest speeds which we could realistically get it to spin at it not even close to the speed of light, making any...

    Career options for someone with a Masters?

    Hi. I'm wondering what field I should go into or what I should major in. I like math, science, and computers. The fields I want to learn some more about are physics, engineering, computer science, robotics, biotechnology, and nanotechnology. I've taken 2 years of a computer science class...
