Thanks again, I'll get these all down on a list for when I'm next looking to get a few books :) So far got - Griffith's and the Feynman lecture series. Plus some general books for conceptual rather than mathematical reading from Kaku, Hawking, Greene etc.

Cheers for the replies! Just went for Griffiths' book, had good reviews and sounds like a good introductory one.

Hey guys, just wondering whether anybody knows of any good, clear books on quantum mechanics for a 1st year undergrad that would take me through my whole 4 year course - with introductory fundamentals of quantum physics through to the modern advances. Any advice would be appreciated :smile:

That's brilliant thank you :) I just assumed that I could neglect the negative by taking the acceleration or \frac{dv}{dt} to also be negative? Also, by dividing by v^2 would the RHS not be \frac{-40}{v^2} dv Thank you!

Homework Statement A football of mass 0.4 kg travels horizontally above the ground. The ball experiences a drag force of DT = 0.01v2 where v is instantaneous speed. Immediately after the kick the ball has a speed of 15 m/s. How long does it take for the speed to drop to 12 m/s? Homework...
