It is never too late to do anything. Even I've started learning physics too late. Try some online learning resources. And yeah try this http://www.staff.science.uu.nl/~hooft101/theorist.html

hello everyone. Can anyone please help with following questions? 1. Can coefficient of friction (both static and dynamic) be greater than one? What happens if it is greater than 1 ? 2. Why coefficient of kinetic friction is less than coefficient of static friction and why it decreases at...

Quantum mechanics by Linus Pauling (you can get it on archive.org ) and Griffiths of course.

Hello everyone, can anyone please suggest a good book on the theory of transistors. I want to study transistors from more of physics point of view i.e. how they actually work internally. Thanks in advance.

You can imagine the given situation like this: two capacitors with plate area 5 cm2 and having plates 1mm apart in series (one of which is filled with mica). Now these two are in parallel with cap. with area 5 cm2 and separation 2mm. You don't need to know charge. Just use the formula C= εA/d

Photons do not bounce off each other. However, according to the wave description, they could interfere.The result of this would depend, according to the wave theory, on their difference in phase. However, things aren't as simple as this implies because interference is known to take place even...

Night time has nothing to do with rape. In Mumbai a woman was raped three times by three different people in a single day...and that is during daytime. It is the mentality of few men to look women as "toys" which is causing such incidences. And talking about police of India... they are too busy...

We can BEND light (for ex.bending of light due to stars or black holes) but can not REFLECT it without a surface.

In Q.1 (b) you should use combinations and not permutations since we are talking about selections. for Q.2 try to think placing china mugs in some specific no. of allowed spaces and then rearranging them. In Q.3 you can't consider all mugs different. Mugs of same colour can't be rearranged...

"An elementary treatise on dynamics of a particle and of rigid bodies" by S.L.Loney is good but it is quite "mathematical", also I'm not sure if it is easily available in the market. Also try "Engineering Mechanics - Dynamics" by A. Pytel and J. Kiusalaas. For vector calculus " div,grad,curl...

try these 1. problems in general physics - I.E.Irodov 2. collection of problems in theoretical mechanics - I.V.Meshchersky i hope these fit in the difficulty level u want.

(a) There are six legs, and the vertical component of the tension force in each leg is T sinθ where θ = 40° . For vertical equilibrium (zero acceleration in the y direction) then by Newton’s second law 6T sinθ= mg ∴ T = mg/6 sinθ ∴ the ratio becomes T/mg ≈ 0.259 (b) The angle θ is...
